Derek Owens joined the Marine Corps to make a difference in the world. After being seriously wounded in battle, he was given convalescent leave. While on leave, he visited the families of Marines who served with him and were killed in action. While trying to meet the family of a Marine in a small town in North Carolina, he met and fell in love with a woman who happened to be in love with someone else. Saddened, he returned to the Marines to finish out his obligation. Upon his discharge, he joined a police department in Florida in hopes of making a difference in people's lives. While he did make a difference in some lives, he found himself wrestling alligators, getting into high-speed wild car chases, and surviving a shoot-out with a serial killer. After five years of police work, he felt God calling him to do something else, so he resigned from the police department. As he sought God's will in his life, he frequently prayed and finally discovered his true calling. And at the end of his journey, he found true faith and love.

Growing up 'free-range' on an orchard property in country S.A. and with the support of his beloved Nan living nearby, probably aided Gary Williams to overcome some heady challenges, adult concepts and tragedy in his early childhood. A grounding that made him determined to makesomething of himself in later life; a subconscious knowledge that you can overcome anything and become anything; and a seeking of faith.Gary's book is a bare-boned, brave account of his faith journey, as well as his personal quest to achieve regardless of a lack of knowledge or experience. In short, he has an incredible determination to win regardless of obstacles and he does so under his own methodology and resourcefulness, under his own steam. A talented musician, he won prestigious competitions, sometimes on instruments he'dnever played before discovering that there was a competition in the offering.
