What Belief Can Do: How God Turned My Pain into Power and Tragedy into Triumph—and How He Can Do the Same for You

Description

"Riveting." -Publishers Weekly Ron Archer's story will inspire you to trust God with the impediments facing you, whether big or small. Born to a biracial teenage mother forced by poverty to become a call girl, he survived an abortion his mother's pimp forced her to have. Abused by some, bullied by others, and rejected by a stepfather, Ron was a stutterer, a bed-wetter, and an overweight kid who banged his head against the wall to knock himself to sleep at night. At age ten, he decided to take his own life. The gun did not fire. Afterward, a schoolteacher and a widowed neighbor stepped in and shared the love of God with him—forever changing his life. In this message-driven memoir, Archer shows readers how regardless of background and experiences, God can transform your pain into power and your misery into ministry. In What Belief Can Do, readers will discover: Everything we go through in life is a down payment on our destiny. We are conceived and born with a divine design. Loving, caring people who mentor a child can change his or her life. Sometimes our greatest blessings are contained in our greatest challenges.
