Julian of Norwich is credited with saying, "First there is the fall, and then we recover from the fall. Both are the mercy of God." TJ Sharitz's book, Control Freak, puts meat on the bones of this famous quote. After many falls and many times getting up, TJ has written a book that captures the hard knocks of his life and the mercy of God which helped him become the man he is today. Read this book and learn how TJ's experience might help you grow into the person you are meant to be. I don't think you will be disappointed. I wasn't. That's why I give it 5 stars.

Let the truth set you free. Control Freak, The Least Valuable Player is an honest and real book that delivers emotional testimonials of heart wrenching illnesses, and the power of a wife's faithfulness and courage. A must read for wives and mothers everywhere. Praise God. Amen.

Control Freak - that's me. TJ nailed it, opening my eyes and my heart to my own destructive, addictive control. Yes, I'm taking control (one last time), and making by husband and three college kids read this book too. Our college kids all have learning difficulties and will benefit from TJ's stories and tools he so honestly shares. Great inspirational book and resource for everyone.

Wow, TJ gets real and vulnerable from the very first chapter. Control Freak, The Least Valuable Player is packed full of powerful words and stories that grab your heart and soul, and don't let go. Thank you, TJ, for sharing your story with the world the world. This book has helped enlightened me to become a better husband and father.

Control – we all in some way have an addiction to control – do we acknowledge it? TJ has written a unique book that shows us it doesn’t matter which side of the tracks you come from, control can take hold of anyone. Raw, real, engaging, and heart wrenching at times bringing tears to my eyes. TJ exposes his life to bring healing to others – to know that we are not alone, and with Jesus it is all okay.
