By IRB Media

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.

Book Preview: #1 I had lost almost thirty pounds by the time I was referred to a gastrointestinal surgeon at Duke University Hospital. Every few hours, I would double over from a stabbing pain in my stomach. The surgeon said there was nothing to suggest that we were going after the right thing.

#2 One of the most popular prosperity preaching duos is Gloria Copeland and her husband, Kenneth. They claim that God showers them with blessings, and they expect nothing less than fairness from him. When a tornado threatened to destroy their home, they asked God to protect their property and those of their neighbors as well.

#3 I call my sisters, and they dutifully sit. Our words feel garbled, burning hot with love. My next call is to my friend Katherine, who will immediately get into the car, screaming at the windshield. I will wake up from surgery and find them both there, asleep in my hospital bed.

#4 I have had two perfect moments in my life. The first was when I married Toban, and we stood alone as husband and wife. The second was when they put Zach in my arms for the first time and we looked at each other like it was a conspiracy of mutual adoration.
