About this ebook

Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will hurt me until the day I die.

I dedicate this work to the clients of my forty-six years of therapy and pastoral work who have shared their pain and sorrow inflicted by words. No wound is more difficult to overcome than the wound caused by words. Love is destroyed by words. Families are separated by words. Young lives are placed on roads that lead to dead-ends and destructions by words. Careers are ended, reputations are lost and wars are begun all because of words.
To the many who have suffered so greatly I pray this book will help others understand your pain.
Like apples of gold in settings of silver is a word spoken in right circumstances. (Proverbs 23:11 New American Standard Bible)

Author

Dr. Eugene C. Rollins

The Rev. Dr. Eugene C. Rollins began on May 15, 1984 as the pastor of Liberty Hill Presbyterian Church and retired on December 25, 2011 after twenty-seven years. This was his fifth church in forty-seven years of pastoring. The five churches experienced an average of 180 percent growth under his leadership. The primary reason has been through creating an attitude of pastoral care of the church and community. For thirty-eight of the forty-seven years he has been bi-vocational or tri-vocational. He is a state licensed professional counselor and also a licensed supervisor of professional counselors. He is the founder and director of Midlands Area Pastoral Counseling Services, Inc., established 1984. He is a certified supervisor with the Association for Clinical Pastoral Education, Inc. and a diplomat with the College of Pastoral Supervision and Psychotherapy, Inc. He holds two South Carolina licenses and nine national certifications. Why I Take the Bible Seriously but Not Literally is Dr. Rollins fourth book to be published. His first, Grace Is Not a Blue-Eyed Blonde, was published in 2008. His second book, The Masks We Wear, was published in 2010, and his third book, The Power of the Spoken Word, was published in 2011. He also has a workbook, Taming My Tongue, that is a study guide to recognizing The Power of the Spoken Word. Check his website for other publications and articles - www.generollins.com
