Video Intro to Healing the Hurts of Your Past

Cross Point Publishing and I will be working to offer chapter by chapter vignettes of Healing the Hurts of Your Past. Here is a simple overview of the book itself...train whistle and all!

Connecting the Dot's of Past Pain

One thing I've found is that people often don't give themselves much credit. They see dysfunction in their life and they assume that they are just messed up. They are deficient by nature and will never get any better. There are haves and have nots in the world and they are one of the have nots.


But what I do in my book is to help you connect the dots of your past. There are roots of shame that everyone has. Each root typically produces a number of lies that speak to us on a daily basis. It's no wonder we have the problems we do. If what we believe about ourselves is wrong then our behavior will naturally be wrong (self-defeating). Garbage in. Garbage out.


My book helps diagnose the garbage that has gone into your life. You'll learn about the lies you believe and what caused them in the first place. I then show you why those lies cause the dysfunctional behavior you have. But more than diagnose the problem I help you to see how you can break the patterns of behavior that the lies have produced in your life.


My point is...give yourself some credit. You have issues. Sure. We all do. But there is something you can do about them. You don't have to be stuck. God is present right now to help you move to a better place.

Help for Past Hurts

New Book

My guess is you landed here because you are looking for some help. You are hurting. Or maybe someone you love is hurting.  Maybe I can help.

There are many voices out there. I don't pretend to have THE answer. But I have helped many people get on the right track spiritually and emotionally over the years. Maybe I can help you too.

My new book, Healing the Hurts of Your Past, is the material that I've been teaching in seminars, at church, and in a treatment center for the past twelve years. I'm both a pastor and a spirituality director at an addiction treatment center. Between the two places I've dealt with many hurting people.

The book is dense...meaning it's not full of light stories to make you feel good for a passing moment.. It's half diagnostic and half solutions based. In other words I get right down  to the nitty gritty of what makes you hurt and then help you learn how you can fix what's broken.

No apologies...I'll always point you to God through Jesus Christ. But my approach is low key so even if you don't believe right now...give me a chance. Hear me out. Many nonbelievers have walked away giving faith and God another look. Others have found help but left out the faith part.

I'll be posting thoughts now and then. Feel free to write me with your questions. I hope you'll give my book a read and let me know what you think.

The book is available on Kindle as well as paperback.
