Long-haired Bradley Garrett is a rodeo champion. Known as a sexy cowboy, he has never had a problem getting women. In fact he has known many, but not usually for more than one night. Growing up with two older brothers and one younger sister, Brad always knew he was the black sheep of the family. Working the ranch, breaking and boarding horses has left him tired and lonely. His older brothers have already found love, but Brad knows love is not in the cards for him. If he can't have Sarah, he doesn't want anyone, and he knows in his heart that he's not good enough for her. Brad has a secret. He is an alcoholic that drinks to forget his loneliness, and until the night he accidently overdoses with pain pills and alcohol, his family has no idea just how bad his problem is.

Languages : en
Pages : 308
Book Description
The book The Unforgettable Experience! reflects countless memories of how I had to overcome obstacles through learning how to trust the process of God. This book reflects different experiences of how I had to travel in the same place but the same season, and even when I have traveled different places, I was still repeating some of the similar experiences. This book reflects the different levels of maturity of growth that I had encountered and experienced through each journey that I have had with God. The unforgettable experience will reflect the many times that I have experienced hearing the voice of God through many twists, bumps, turns, dead-end roads, self-doubts, and disappointments that life had to offer me. This book will reflect every area of my encounter of self-esteem, self-identify, season of suicide, season of rejection, season of brokenness, season of being misunderstood, and season of the lost. The Unforgettable Experience! is not just a book that reflects the countless encounters with my faith but this book reflects the journey of how I once thought things were impossible that God showed me that he was the Father of impossibilities and the Father of possibilities. The Unforgettable Experience! will speak of the many accounts how having faith in God had brought me out some of the darkest places in my walk. Although this was a journey, this book will empower many that have gone through similar experiences and going through the now experience that what I thought was impossible, God took every situation in my life that had occur to turn around for my good. If God could do it for me, the Father can surely do for you. This book reflects how God was molding me for purpose, and now I know my full purpose because of those experiences. What I thought was breaking me was just making me. What I thought that I could not overcome, I overcame through faith, transformation, and trust.

Book Description
I am especially dedicating this book to my father (rest in peace). They say that all good things will eventually end, well for me, that is not the case. This book is the new beginning of bringing back to life the people and things thought to have come to an end. I decided to name this book “A product of my own environment”, because; all of us are just that. Growing up in Chicago IL, my environment naturally put inside of me to never speak on things I knew nothing about, and not to mind the business of others. This was all part of everyday survival.

Wake, Sleeper
Author: Bryan Parys
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1498207863
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 189
Book Description
In 1987, when Bryan Parys was four years old, his father Alfred pressed record on a tape player next to his hospital bed. He began leaving messages for his wife, three children, and anyone who wanted to know why his terminal cancer at age thirty-eight wouldn't shake his faith. "If God told me to walk into a fiery furnace, I'd do it," he said, perhaps knowing that he would not walk back out. In, Wake, Sleeper, Parys tries to understand his father's deathbed fire in the context of a Christian childhood that taught him about eternity. Unspoken feelings of doubt lead Parys toward an inner life where he is allowed to question, provoke, and search for beauty in the void of grief. Through the lens of his upbringing in a Christian school and the church that met in the school gymnasium, that inner voice emerges in Wake, Sleeper. The grief of his past contrasts with the tension of his search to fit in, told as a lyrical and often humorous meditation on time. .embed-container { position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%; height: 0; overflow: hidden; max-width: 100%; } .embed-container iframe, .embed-container object, .embed-container embed { position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; }
