From HOT MESS To HALLELUJAH: The Transformation Power Of "I AM"

This book was written to let you know that you've been lied to your whole life. You may have even believed the lies, like I did. I'm no expert. I don't have a theology degree. I didn't go to seminary. I didn't even finish high school. But I am living proof, tangible evidence, of the transformation power of who God say I am. My prayer is that you will know that you know that you know, without a shadow of a doubt, that God can give you an amazing, beautiful, brand new life, not just in the sweet by and by, but in the right here right now. There's a lot of my life in this book. Not because I want to be the center of attention, but because I want you to see for yourself, to know, that if God can turn my life around, He can surely do that for you, too. I know that I'm not the only one that's ever felt hopeless, helpless, trapped, ashamed, angry, depressed, unwanted, unloved, out cast, hurt, rejected, abused, worthless, forgotten, and used. I know that I can't be the only one that was waiting for life to be done with. I can't be the only one that just tried to make it through each day as numb as possible, from one drug to the next, secretly hoping that somehow they would put a permanent end to the pain of surviving any given day. There's no way that I'm the only person that fought against demons, both in the people around me and in my own mind. I know I'm not the only one. This book is especially for those people. For everything that I've been through in my life, I am grateful, because by living the life that I lived, I am able to look anyone in the eye and honestly say, "I understand. I know what you're going through, because I've been there, too. Let me tell you what God did for me." That's an enormous blessing, to go from being less than nothing to a soldier of Christ! I'm still a hot mess, but I'm holy and blessed. And so are you. You'll see.
