An Inspiring Autobiography That Will Leave You At A Loss For Words Some have heard the stories in the Bible that took place so many years ago: The old tales of the prophets like Noah, who built the ark in the middle of a desert when the earth had not yet brought for droplets of rain. [Genesis 2:6]. Or possibly Abraham and Sarah, who were in their 90's and, even still, the couple grew the seed that represented their child: Isaac. Most of humanity would venture to say these stories are fibs or fairy-tales, lost in translation, not one of them being fact or true. Well, I wasn't around way back when but I can say with certainty God speaks; I was there to see it myself. (One conversation with the Creator is in this book). On that note, scripture backs the Creator's appearance and how the Maker of all communicates with his people. Brief Book Description This novel is a compilation of short-stories; personal experiences endured throughout my years of life. There are forty-eight chapters in this book, all of which are entertaining and outspoken: You will laugh, cry, and sometimes you might even say, "Holy man, I can't believe this guy hasn't died!" One could even say that this book entails just as many wrong ways to live life as there are chapters within the pages: 48. My childhood saw its share of ups but also several unbearable downs, all brought on by alcoholic parents who chose to place the bottle in front of their children's wellbeing. [Side effect from alcoholism]. The Rotten parenting behaviors included: physical and emotional abuse, domestic violence, and neglect. The results prompted a low self-esteem, anxiety, and depression. I felt worthless, stupid; nobody could ever love me. [Aftereffect from abuse and neglect]. I strolled through my early High School years, hoping that the horrors wrapped inside my head would vanish; forever disappear as if they were never there. I desperately needed an escape from my inner thoughts: An escape from reality. One day during my early teens, I came across alcohol. At once, my negative mind thoughts were eclipsed with positivity. Liquor gave me courage, inner peace, good looks, all from this glorious drink that contained spirits. Friends arrived in abundance, and my popularity rose as if I were a rock star who just topped the charts for the first time. However, during the years to come, that freedom I felt from negative mind thoughts [because of liquor] ventured in the wrong direction, sending me on a crash course to Loser-Ville. My grown-up life was littered with depression, alcoholism, addictions, jail, and umpteen suicide attempts. Chaos and near-death experiences were rampant, all on account of drugs and alcohol. My chaotic life-path would eventually come to a sudden halt because of one conversation with the Creator. Teachings An excellent book on what not to do as a parent. How abuse and neglect affect a child and change their adult mindset. Methadone and opioid withdrawals & side effects. Drugs and Alcohol and how it destroys lives. Reviews Jolee Nick [Spirituality Specialist/Addictions Advisor] says, "Confessions From A Prophet's Past is not only inspiring but also heartwarming. It hit close to home as a recovering addict. I can relate to many of the accounts in this novel. Jeromy is not only able to grasp the reader's heart, but you can feel the energy in his stories. (He draws you into the reads). There is humour, tears, triumph, glory, faith, hope, and last but certainly not least, Godliness!"
