'It was January 1, 2012, which happened to be a Sunday. It was Sunday morning, to be precise, around 10:30 a.m. I was driving my wife to my mother’s house to pick up our daughter and proceed to church. I had the most horrendous headache, and I felt lower than dirt. It was a hangover-a word I would have never used or understood earlier in my life, but I had built up a problem over the years. I didn’t want to admit it, though I knew the truth deep inside my heart. I had developed a drinking problem.' I started this book right after finishing the first draft of a previous book. At the time, I was reading one of the many books my publisher had personally written where she posed the question, 'What is God leading you to write?' At that very moment, I knew this was the book God was calling me to share. I tell parts of my personal alcohol story through various sections of this book, but, suffice it to say, I had a problem. I had the type of problem I believe exists rampantly in our society, but we rarely talk about it. To be clear, the police never arrested me for a DWI. I was not violent. I never physically hurt anyone. I was simply in a fog many of my days and made stupid choices in the fog. Life was wonderful and bright around me, but I chose to view it through the haze of alcohol. This book shares some of the realizations I’ve had since choosing to live alcohol-free on January 1, 2012. I hope you find comfort in my story and observations, as well as perhaps a little bit of useful truth for your own life journey. -Mark
