Produktbeschreibung
A boy quivers in fear at the sight of his unhinged mother. It's dark, and she's raving again. "Take these pills with me and all the pain will go away." This was only the beginning for Joseph Adevai. His mother tried to convince him to commit suicide. She brainwashed him into believing his father was a monster. She kidnapped him from the life he knew and forced him to live under a false name. These horrors led Joe to the life of a high school dropout, a drug abuser and dealer, and then to a jail cell at Riker's Island. From out of these depths, Joseph Carlucci Adevai found God. Through His grace, he shook his addictions and conquered his demons. Now he is the Senior Pastor of Grace Church of North Brunswick, NJ; CEO of Serenity Springs Recovery Center; a retired Senior Vice President of a $25 billion company; and proud husband and father. Pastor Joe has made and lived through nearly every mistake imaginable. His life is proof that everyone-no matter who they are, how they struggle, or what they've done-has a reason to live. "Pastor Joe's story illustrates how no matter what your past or where you came from that nothing is impossible with God!" -Willie Alfonso, Chaplain to the Brooklyn Nets and Chapel Leader for the NY Yankees "Pastor Joe's story is not only powerful but he is totally transparent. Which is refreshing and encouraging for anyone who reads this book. You won't be able to put it down."-Chad Mattson and Mike Gomez, lead singers, recording artists, "Unspoken" "Joe's story is unique. And yet it is very much like the story of all who have found new life in Jesus. If you feel lost, read Joe's story to see firsthand God's power to redeem a life. Watch as He takes a person lost in self-destruction and despair and gives him a purpose and a place in life now and in eternity." -Dr. David Dean, PhD, Dallas Theological Seminary
