John Ishee, A Man

I was a patient at Cumberland heights back in the 90's. I was afraid of God. My addiction took me to places where I knew thre was a GOD but did no believe he wanted anything to do with me. This book introduced me to GOD, not as a damning GOD But a GOD that loves me unconditionally. I recommend it to anybody trying to find faith, not just recoveryong addicts/alcoholics. I have had the priviledge of getting to know Dr Ishee as a man, I have not seen him in over a year. I know that if I walked in his office tomorrow that he would probably remeber my name and we could talk about anything as if I ssaw him the day before. He brought me back to GOD and I believe it is stated in this book. I told Dr Ishee that I believe in GOD but do not think he wanted anything to do with me, I was a lost cause. Dr Ishee asked "Mark do you have Children?" I said I have a son. Dr Ishee then asked "Do you love your son, no mater what ever mistakes he will make in his life?". I said I do, no matter what mistakes he will ever make. Dr Ishee said" That is exactly how GOD loves you, unconditionally, you are his son". It has been 6 years since DR Ishee had that talk with me but I do think about that everyday.Mark Baker

Spirituality in Recovery

I had the privilege of meeting John Ishee at Cumberland Heights rehab center in Nashville. He is truly an inspiration. His book has very simple steps to follow to have a full, spiritual life.
