My heart for this book is to share my own personal stories with you, from trials to victories, in hope that it will help you be set free of things you didn't even realize were there. Become investigator to your own life with the help and guidance of the Holy Spirit. The words in this book reveal deep struggles that I have personally faced, many things I have never shared in public. I pray that through my openness with you, you will be encouraged to be open with yourself and to God. This book is tough, it's painful, but it's life and empowering! "We were hurt, humiliated, and lost." "Jesus did it for me and He will do it for you." "Through our trials and struggles can come our greatest victories." "Your past does not dictate your future." Roots to Fruit is not just a book: it's a diary, a journal, a look into your past and into your future. This book will push away roots in your life that cause death and defeat, while producing fruit that turns your life into victories and testimonies! Anyone who wants healing from their pasts, hope for their futures, and to be reminded that God is still there, even if you have stopped looking, should read this. For the lost, the saved, the hurt, the broken, the angry, the addicted, the parent, the spouse, man, woman, and teen, this book is for YOU!
