Hello, my name is Stuart Hardy-Taylor and I am a recovering alcoholic/addict whom has been saved by the grace of God. Thrown into a life of abuse, drink, drugs and underage sex, which would haunt every day of my life. Through the things I suffered as a child, I used substances to escape the restless taunting in my head from my past. Addiction cost my family, home, job, and almost life and nothing in this world could stop my drinking or taking drugs, until one day in my brokenness I cried out to God and shouted "Please God help me I'm killing myself, I'm dying, can't you stop me drinking for just one day please?" He answered me and told me to go to a soup kitchen at the church up the road to see an old friend who had turned to God some years before. These 50 poems recount my journey from addiction to recovery. I pray in faith and hope that these poems will touch hearts and give someone somewhere the hope to reach out in faith that God will answer and transform their lives as he has done to mine.
