    About this ebook

    Author Timothy Kelly’s story begins as a young black kid and continues as he grows into manhood with no direction. With three brothers and a baby sister, his mother and father scuffled to make ends meet. Seven people lived paycheck to paycheck in a two-bedroom home.

    In A Father’s Prayer, Kelly shares his story growing up in poverty through to his adult life where he discusses his infidelity and the consequences of those actions. From attending school, to living with his large family, to the death of his father, to his job selling insurance, to his marriage to Patricia, to cheating on his wife, to taking cocaine, and more, this memoir chronicles the events that have shaped him throughout the years.

    Kelly offers his personal narrative as a message to other men who may be tempted to cheat on their wives. He encourages others to resist Satan’s temptation and be honest and faithful in their relationships.
