Rick Hendrix, 39, said: "It's pretty scary, but exciting, and I'm looking forward to it. I find it very rewarding to share these parts of my life that are scars, and no longer open wounds."
He added: "Having always vowed never to write my autobiography, I am very fortunate to have the talent and abilities of Evie Hawkins to help me make this journey into a new place."
Hawkins said the book would be "more honest" than most Christian memoirs.
"Hendrix has promised that he is going to be very frank about his entire life," said a spokeswoman.
Born Richard Binghames Hendrix, Ambassador Hendrix left school at 14 to work in radio before joining the Garth Brooks, Whitney Houston and gospel music train.

Rick Hendrix (http://www.rickhendrix.com) lives in Nashville,TN from where he donates his time to community projects and plans to run for Congress.

What Story, written by archetype experts Drs. Carol Pearson (best-selling author of The Hero Within and other books) and Hugh Marr, includes two copies of a scientifically validated self-assessment of these hidden archetypal patterns.
