Do You Want to Get Well? (eBook, ePUB)

A Memoir

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

On March 29, 2019, April Towery was an overconfident alcoholic who had been drinking all day when she slipped into her car, after dark, to travel from Houston to Dallas. About halfway into the drive, she crossed a median and hit, head-on, another vehicle carrying a driver and two passengers. Although she recalls little from that night, she remembers hearing a dispatcher say one word through a police officer's radio: fatality. In a raw and tragic story of redemption, hope, and forgiveness, April chronicles her life journey beginning in a Christian home where she battled low self-esteem and a strong desire to be loved and accepted. As she reveals how social drinking led her to feel beautiful, likable, and funny, April candidly describes how she slowly transformed into a full-blown and seemingly hopeless alcoholic. While sharing insights into her spiritual awakening behind the walls of a Texas prison, she discloses how she learned to affirmatively answer the deeply introspective question Jesus placed on her heart. Do You Want to Get Well? is the moving true story of a recovering alcoholic's journey of healing and freedom in Christ.
