Produktbeschreibung

Foreword by Les Brown. "I will only try this once. I am not an addict. I can quit at any time." To every addict, these words are all too familiar.
Drug addiction has destroyed the moral fiber of many communities and penetrated every level of society. The reach and grip of addiction go beyond age, race, economics, education, and political boundaries. No matter how long you have been an addict or how low you have fallen, you can fully recover and remain free.
Dwight speaks candidly about his addiction to crack cocaine and alcohol and the toll it took on his family and aspirations. After falling for the "Big Lie" he made a conscious decision to begin writing a new story for his life based on the truth of God's Word.
Dwight's story will not only be a ray of hope for anyone struggling with addiction, but it will also be an encouragement to their family and friends.

Autorenporträt

For over thirty years Dwight Pledger has been about the business of developing, fine-tuning, and perfecting his message of hope and restoration to thousands. Dwight's message is not built on the platitudes of other men and women but is born out of a personal journey through a life that has seen him rise to the pinnacle of business success only to fall victim to a destructive habit and waste it all away. Hooked and homeless in 1986, Dwight found himself flat on his back, a broken, wounded, and hurting man, looking up and calling on a power greater than himself; and because he looked up he was able to get up. In Dwight's autobiography, "The Truth About the Big Lie," he chronicled a seven-year journey into the world of drug and alcohol addiction. The second edition's updated and expanded content includes the past thirty-four years he has been in recovery. Dwight uses his story to be a warning to would-be addicts, and an example for those who may be struggling with addiction and no longer want to remain in bondage. Dwight also gives valuable insight to those who love someone who is addicted and need to understand what drives their addiction. From 1992 to 2015 Dwight served as co-founder and president of Ray of Hope Ministries, a drug and alcohol outreach and restoration ministry, based in Southern California. Dwight, along with the Ray of Hope Ministry teams, took their message of hope and healing to churches, prisons, rehabilitation centers, and non-profit organizations. Ray of Hope also established and managed two women's recovery homes in San Bernardino, California, and consulted with many organizations working to establish their own in-house recovery support groups. In 2003, Dwight officially became a member of the Les Brown Platinum Speaker Program. As a protégée of Les Brown, Dwight has received personal mentoring and has traveled nationally and internationally sharing the stage with Les on numerous occasions. Dwight continues to work and collaborate with Les on many events and projects on an ongoing basis. For the past eight years, Dwight has joined forces with Dan Smith; together they founded D&D Training and Coaching Solutions. Using their collective insights to develop a training and coaching system known as Three-Dimensional Storytelling (3D). Dwight and Dan are currently co-hosting Les Brown's Monday Motivation Call, where they present a broad range of personal development topics and training modules weekly. Dwight...
