Transition

Step into the shadows of one man's journey from pain to redemption as he unveils the secrets that shatter the silence surrounding childhood abuse, addiction, occult temptations, and the relentless pursuit of hope. Will you dare to join him on this transformative odyssey? As you turn each page, you'll find yourself drawn deeper into Nelson's harrowing experiences—a childhood scarred by abuse, the absence of a protective father figure, and the relentless torment of bullies. His search for acceptance led him down treacherous paths, leading to involvement with clubs and gangs that promised refuge, but exacted a heavy toll on his self-worth. Did you grow up with a low self-image and self-loathing? Nelson did, until he discovered the dangerous allure of drugs and alcohol—an attempt to numb the deep-rooted inadequacy and unhealed wounds of rejection. The occult beckoned, promising him control in a world that felt chaotic. Like the protagonist, did you ever try to numb your pain with drugs, or tempted to delve into the occult out of curiosity, and desperation to control your situation? 

 

Haunted by his demons, Nelson found himself on the precipice of oblivion, teetering between surrendering to a suicide mission, or summoning the strength to fight for his own survival. But in the depths of his despair, a flicker of hope emerged, igniting a flame of resilience that would change the course of his life. He explores his bout with drug abuse and addiction and pays tribute to the miracle working power of Jesus Christ as he achieved sobriety, peace, and purpose. Nelson takes the reader on this roller coaster ride from mental anguish and madness to deliverance and maturity. Influenced by the likes of Jim Cymbala, David Wilkerson, and Nicky Cruz, Nelson's memoir hopes to leave the reader to ponder the questions: Why are we here? Who are we? Whose are we? Is there purpose in pain? How do the lonely and socially inept find love? And most importantly, how do we find hope in hopeless situations?
