About this ebook
Life on the Rocks is a story of triumph and tragedy, of failure and fortune, and of despair and delight. This extraordinary journey follows a man into the darkest depths, where only God can pull him out with a healing that is so complete that it not only transforms his life but the lives of those who love him. Whether your cross is the bad hand you were dealt, or self-induced, this memoir will give you hope, faith, and a pathological optimism that there is light at the end of the tunnel. This handbook for life blends clever stories with tear-jerking reality and will inspire you that it is never too late to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat.
