Opis

"Sticks and Stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me...," how untrue this phrase. The words, "I will not be called a nigger." echoes through the mind, the soul and the body of Tanya Jo AuFranc, wounding his spirit and in turn birthing tremendous pain. His pain bred hatred and bitterness, nourishing feelings of fear, rejection and hurt. Tanya's agony began in his youth and escalated in adulthood. His self-will and pride, education and riches, could not erase those haunting words. Tanya encounters many trials...a preaching ministry, marriage with a tragic end, murder, prison, and rejection of God...but not freedom from those words. Fame gained through education, a career in law and riches, as well as drinking and sex failed to erase or even shut out for long the echoes of the past. He became crippled in soul, mind, and spirit and eventually also in body. Finally the net of destruction breaks when he surrenders to perfect love, the kind that covers all sin.
