​God, truth, faith, hope and love. What does it all mean? Why does it even matter? This book is a powerful personal testimony about the goodness of God. A raw, down-to-earth, bare-bones book that asks the reader to consider some important eternal questions, regardless of past experiences. Why do you believe as you do? Are you missing something? Is there more?

​It’s Big, Really Big
I’ve struggled with anxiety, amongst other issues and was extremely shy when younger. I went to Sunday School and church on occasion. Now, I’ve been an Assistant Pastor and I’m an author. It’s been an interesting ride, for sure, and this is my first-ever book. It contains the fruit of years of life experiences, ideas and revelation (there's a video interview with me below if you're interested - you must authorise cookies).
​
​This is an invitation to stop for a moment, take a breath, take stock of your life and give a thought to God and what the eternal future holds. No, I’m not a scholar and I don’t hold any special credentials. However, I do have a story to tell.

To compound the situation, I found myself on the balcony of our rented 18th-floor apartment. It was a million-dollar view, with the ocean filling much of the image captured by my eyes. The rest of the scene consisted of the white sandy beach that drew a thick line by the sea. The view was interrupted by the many nearby buildings and decorated with deceivingly slow-moving traffic. Life was still moving. Right now, the only thing I was really seeing was the pool way down below. I wondered what would happen if I jumped. Would I miss the pool? Would it be quick?
