Overcoming Addiction Through Jesus Christ: By God's Amazing Grace Many Have Experienced "The Victorious Christian Life" at America's Keswick: So Could (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781662818059)

This book depicts the lives of 11 courageous men who had formerly anguished over their sinful, addictive behaviors, which wounded many hearts and ravaged many lives. Nevertheless, they were not able to stop in their own strength. Their help came from the Gospel of Amazing Grace. Every courageous person who is willing to wholeheartedly surrender to Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior will experience God's gift of a new abundant life. What this means is that those who become Christians become new persons. They are not the same anymore, for the old life is gone. A new life has begun! All this newness of life is from God, Who brought us back to Himself through what (Jesus) Christ did...For God made (Jesus) Christ, Who never sinned, to be the offering for our sin, so that we could be made right with God through (Jesus) Christ. (II Corinthians 5:17, 18a, 21) How we thank God, Who gives us victory over sin and death through Jesus Christ our Lord! ... You were His enemies, separated from Him by your evil thoughts and actions, yet now He has brought you back as His friends. He has done this through His death on the cross in His own human body. As a result, He has brought you into the very presence of God and you are holy and blameless as you stand before Him without a single fault. (1 Corinthians 15:57; Colossians 1:21-23) These courageous men experienced victory over addiction at America's Keswick Colony of Mercy. They continue to enjoy "The Victorious Christian Life", "The Exchanged Life" and an addiction-free lifestyle. SO COULD YOU! My name is Michael JJPDTDAM/R, D/K Byrne. I grew up in East Meadow, Long Island, New York. I was blessed with a loving mother and father, who always encouraged and exhorted me to do my best in loving God, my seven wonderful brothers (four) and sisters (three), and everyone who our Lord Jesus created. Our superhero mother modeled a Jesus Christ-like lifestyle. She consoled us during hard times and celebrated with us during the many good times. She had a blackboard and wrote something inspirational daily. She also walked us to our local library (about a mile from our home) once a week for new books. Our loving dad taught us to love the ocean beaches, swimming, and especially fishing. Both mom and dad modeled a great work-ethic. They both emphasized the importance of diligent study in school and gave us small rewards as incentives. They also showed us how to have fun around the house, on our block with 114 kids. I am most thankful for God's amazing grace which gave our parents faith. I am looking forward to seeing them both in heaven. I was inspired to write these two books on overcoming addiction through Jesus Christ because God's amazing grace enabled my father to overcome his alcohol addiction, God answered our families prayers spearheaded my mom. God also blessed mom with a thankful prince charming and us with the return of Superdad "I can do all things through Jesus Who strengthens me" (Philippians 4:13).
