Introduction

Most of my life I deceived myself by thinking that I was Godly because I was a good kid. And yet, as the apostle John wrote, If we claim fellowship with him yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live by the truth. I walked in that darkness for quite a while, but my life has been a journey out of that, a journey into the light of Jesus Christ.

My Name and the Meaning

My parents named me Troy, which means warrior. In a way, this book is about the battles I have faced physically, emotionally and spiritually.

Purpose of the Book

This is the story of my personal growth, and my hope, my sincere prayer, is that it will help you grow, too.
