The main reasons I wrote this first book is to encourage others of
a similar fate. I hope to encourage the lost and depressed in the

listen. Not for money, but for the divine privilege to help them
overcome and see what a blessing they truly are. Nothing is to
great that you can not overcome through Christ.
