A wrongfully accused man whose dedication of spirit has been a source of inspiration and encouragement to prisoners and others whose lives have been shattered. Dr. Brown, a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist for more than twenty-five years, candidly shares his gripping and often turbulent life story. In 1995, he was violently arrested and incarcerated on two felony counts of assault with a deadly weapon. This began a maelstrom of pain and horror. Being in jail is a frightening and bewildering experience, yet, supported by his faith, he established beneficial relationships with inmates that have lasted to this day. From that point on, it is a story delineating the attempts of his wife and her lover to destroy him through the court system. Through professional psychotherapy and a brutally honest self-examination, Dr. Brown is now able to assess his own complicity in his troubles and to heal from the wounds of his emotionally impoverished childhood. Powerful insights are revealed that only the dark night of the soul could have delivered. This book will prove helpful to others in their own healing and recovery processes from past traumas and emotional wounds.
