In this fast-paced world where sin and temptation abound increasingly, it is becoming more difficult to faithfully trust in and serve God. The shelves of Christian bookstores are lined with motivational material to help people do so. In this book, I don't necessarily mark out steps on how to help you be faithful to God. I don't know where you are in your walk with the Lord, but if you struggle with sin or have trouble doubting God's forgiveness, this story will assure you of God's divine mercy and amazing grace. My name is Jesse Weisbrod. This is the story of my very distinct life of setting out as a child in search of purpose, meaning, and truth. Searching for anything that would heal the maladies of mental turmoil I was born with. A painful journey of a broken life that included afflictions like gang and prison violence, to addiction, glamour, and wealth. It's also the testimony of discovering and not embracing God's help, causing my life to be dragged through this world's darkest corners, eventually to the literal gates of hell. A Brand Plucked from the Fire isn't the story of man's ability to overcome, but the testimony of God's grace in helping someone overcome even the most hopeless situation. So I joyfully welcome you into my very difficult journey that would eventually lead me back into the arms of the loving God who created us.
