Riassunto

Create in me a pure heart, O God,and renew a steadfast spirit within me. (Psalm 51:10)

These beautifully simplistic, yet profound words of repentance from King David are the inspiration from which this book was written. The author, Patrick Dillon, feels this heartfelt cry is urgently needed in today's society, "Serious events are taking place in the world and in our own personal lives - it's time to renew our faith and become steadfast in our convictions. "This is a mixture of Holy Scripture, personal perspective, and family stories dating back four generations from the tail end of the Gold Rush, the Great Depression, up to current events. Topics such as Evolution, abortion, voting, peer pressure, baseball, Israel, and the present "great recession" are passionately discussed. The author's friendly candid style evokes an array of emotions. He challenges himself and his readers to truly commit to God, a God who deeply loves us and desires our very best. It is Patrick's sincere aspiration that those who read this will have a renewed sense of true hope that only God can give.

Inside Peak:

I immediately called my sister and told her that she was going to Hollywood. Of course, she thought I was joking until the producer of the movie "Bella" who was still nearby asked for the phone to tell her in person.

I ran outside and raised my hands toward the angry sky and pleaded with God to divert the storm away from the airport. Almost immediately, as if God was responding, a huge bolt of lightning struck less than a mile away, exposing me with its brilliant light for the madman I had become.

The river knows exactly where it is going as it gently winds its way down to the Pacific Ocean. Sometimes I wish I had that much sense of direction in my own life.

Dad realized that his fire had gotten out of control and was spreading out into the forest. Frantically, he took off his coat and used it in a desperate attempt to extinguish the wind-whipped flames.

According to the director of LifeGuard, almost 90% of the women contemplating an abortion who see the ultrasound of their unborn baby decide against it.
