On Broken Pieces

In the 27th chapter of the book of Acts, Luke describes how the apostle Paul and his shipmates endure a storm-tossed shipboard voyage to Rome. They commit the ship to the sea and themselves into the hands of God. The ship is broken into pieces--not to destroy them, but to save them, for some reached the safety of shore on planks and debris from the broken ship. They came in on broken pieces.



Award-winning author Joshua A. McClure was compelled by a vision from God to share encouraging words with all who desire release from their prisons of despair, to the land of hope and freedom. Here he shares 32 years of transforming messages from The Pleasant Street Baptist Church Pulpit after frequent encounters with a loving, caring God. The sermons collected within these pages are simple, clear, and personal. It is Joshua's hope and prayer that God will use these simple words to resurrect the hearts of those who have been waiting and longing for him.



"Joshua conveys God-given, soul-saving words to encourage and ensure we arrive safely on our journey to be with God. Readers will discover how to live with peace and joy in the midst of affliction, pain and loss."

--Thomas A. O'Connell, Westerly, RI Historian and Author



"On Broken Pieces is a guide to living and dying that will not disappoint."

--Ray Uzanas, Author, Odyssey of a Wayward Traveler, True Grits: Tough Times, Tough People
