Tim still works in Safe Directions the rehabilitation center for seriously mentally ill clients with co-occurring disorders. Most of the clients are addicted to drugs and alcohol. Tim still battles on all fronts to help those still trapped back where he once was to overcome their mental illnesses and addictions to substances like crack cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine and alcohol. Scripture is used throughout the book but not as extensively as in "I used to be a dumpster diver but Jesus set me free." The church that Tim and Shali Armstrong serve God in is known as The Cool Church and is a congregation of Bible believing Christians where Tim has traded in all of his old ways of living and now serves God with all of his heart, soul, mind and strength.

There are chapters in the book that take the reader directly into the rehabilitation center where Tim works and depicts actual events where the clients lives have been forever changed for the better by turning their lives over to Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior and then learning one day at a time how to overcome addiction to drugs and alcohol.
