Description
Steve Austin was a pastor when he nearly died by suicide. He survived childhood sexual abuse, plus years of toxic theology, but the effects rippled through this young man’s life for the next twenty-five years. This brief, but powerful memoir will take you on Steve’s journey: from his rural Alabama upbringing, through years of addiction, shame, and secret-keeping, to the suicide attempt that changed everything. This isn’t your typical Christian story. There was no “magic Jesus pill” that suddenly made life better. Recovery from a suicide attempt is a living hell, but it is possible.Faith was a part of Steve Austin’s journey, but so was medication, a powerful support system, and grueling hours in therapy. Recovery is a long and difficult process, but Steve Austin is living proof that new life is possible.This book is for anyone who has failed a suicide attempt and is left wondering “what’s next.” It’s also for anyone suffering from anxiety or depression, bipolar, OCD, PPD, or PTSD. If you’ve ever secretly considered a suicide attempt, this book is for you.
