God's Intervention and Plan amid the Darkness With Mike Smith

Michael Anthony Smith has spent the good part of his life seeking acceptance, and he documents the journey in his riveting memoir, The Gutter Gospel - The road to redemption. Smith’s memoir begins during his childhood in South Dakota. He writes very engagingly about his experience with friends, family, and colleagues. This seemingly typical existence quickly slides into alcoholism, drug abuse, mental illness, and living most of his life terrified of his own shadow. His battles are many, often trying to talk himself out of (or into) suicide attempts; his ability to describe them and his feelings are noteworthy. All he genuinely wanted in life was acceptance. When he realized that, a perfect peace washed over him. So much so that he pulled his car over, got out, ran into the middle of the highway, and began stopping rush hour traffic to share the good news with everyone. As cars zipped by, their drivers had looks of horror watching him spin into madness. Mark Twain said, “The two most important days in your life are the day you were born and the day you understand why.” @mikesgift82@yahoo.com https://theguttergospel.com/book-review https://www.linkedin.com/posts/mike-smith https://www.facebook.com/MikeSmithTheGutterGospel theguttergospel.com#MikeSmith#MikeSmithMinistries#ChristianFaith #FaithJourney#SpiritualGuidance#overcomingdarkness #lightinthedarkness
