Turning Pain into Praise

Turning Pain into Praise is the true life story of Kendal Richardson, a boy born with the odds stacked against him. Rejected by his birth family, thus having a lack of identity and a place to truly belong, he was adopted by a loving family. Yet, abuse still found him, not in the hands of his adoptive family but his neighbors - his innocence was stolen by rape and molestation and he set off on a path of self-destruction and he destroyed others along the way. There was something missing, a huge void he was looking to fill by looking for love in all the wrong people. Just when it seemed that all hope was lost, a lifeline in the form of God reached over to him. This book follows Kendal Richardson's journey from a place of great travail to discovering God and how HE turned his life around. From being rejected and abused by people only to be loved unconditionally by God. This is a story about how God's grace & mercy will keep you. You won't find another story as real, raw, uncut and in-depth that helps a person turn pain into praise.
