Inhalt:

This book is an illustration taken from my own experience about how God is able to take someone (me) who comes from a broken family and is able through time and circumstance to restore me to wholeness and purpose. I am Native American who comes from the Makah Tribe located on the far northwest corner of the state of Washington. Growing up in that community at a time when the tribe was going through too rapid culture change acquainted me with the affects rapid change and how it can result in increased pressure to question core values that once served as a guide for life in relationship to family, tribe, creation and God. My family was made up of good people but due to traumas that affected them early in life and the stresses caused by government efforts to civilize Indians, the dreams of my mother and father were soon replaced by disappointment and pain. Alcoholism entered in, a painful divorce resulted and I became caught in the aftermath of t heir failed relationship, along with my siblings. Fortunately, the God who can fix anyone was able to gather the broken and missing pieces of my life and began a life long effort to fix me. It took a while though and an illustration resulting from an encounter with three unlikely messengers from the Northern Cheyenne in Lame Deer Montana began my discovery. I began to understand how God is able by His grace to repair anyone, no matter their circumstances. He can fix anyone.
