The powerful autobiography of a gambler, drug addict and dealer who turns to God and finds freedom. Offers hope for those struggling with addiction and their families.
Rod's drug addiction began at college and quickly moved from cannabis to Ecstasy and eventually heroin and crack cocaine. He soon became heavily involved in dealing drugs and gambling in order to finance his drugs habit. Following an attempt to import class A drugs onto the island of Guernsey, Rod ended up in prison. At rock bottom and in desperation, he turned to God and began his journey to freedom from his addictions.
"This book is a compelling read...It details the ever greater power of Jesus, who saves lives and brings about a complete transformation to those lives which are on the path to utter destruction, in a way that nothing and no one else can. The book reveals how God's love, grace and true forgiveness turn not only Rod's life around, but also the lives of his long-time accomplices and shows how that has impacted hundreds of others' lives for the better. His accomplices also give us an insight into their own journey with Rod. Altogether, a mighty powerful read."
