This is a story of destiny and how, during the author's purpose-driven journey to make a difference in the world, he came to the realization, at age 49, that he was missing the mark. But, by God's grace through a Divine wake-up call, that all changed, and so did his destiny. He calls that change, the Twist. Through this Twist, God's grace became so compelling that sharing his story was not a matter of if, but when. That when, is now, because this is a book for such a time as this. At the book's outset, you'll know that you're in for a wild ride. His journey includes stories of family - the good, bad, and ugly, fulfilling the American Dream-or not. You'll witness adversity, sexual abuse, tragedy, trauma, heartache, forgiveness, race, injustice, villains, miracles, love, joy, peace, and victory. Through the author's journey, you'll learn what it means to make a difference that is timeless versus temporal, and how the Twist played out in the author's life to reveal the difference. Ultimately, this is a love story. A story about God's love for the whole human race. Come, let the author serve as your tour guide to how grace can transform our lives.
