The first couple of chapters in this book involves a horrific scene that took place when I was nineteen. After that, it starts with my childhood and, as the chapters progress, my age advances forward; in order. (The book title is explained within the pages of the novel).

My childhood saw its share of ups but also several unbearable downs, all brought on by alcoholic parents who chose to place the bottle in front of their children's wellbeing. [Side effect from alcoholism]. The Rotten parenting behaviors included: physical and emotional abuse, domestic violence, and neglect. The results prompted a low self-esteem, anxiety, and depression. I felt worthless, stupid; nobody could ever love me. [Aftereffect from abuse and neglect]. I strolled through my early High School years, hoping that the horrors wrapped inside my head would vanish; forever disappear as if they were never there. I desperately needed an escape from my inner thoughts: An escape from reality.

One day during my early teens, I came across alcohol. At once, my negative mind thoughts were eclipsed with positivity. Liquor gave me courage, inner peace, good looks, all from this glorious drink that contained spirits. Friends arrived in abundance, and my popularity rose as if I were a rock star who just topped the charts for the first time. However, during the years to come, that freedom I felt from negative mind thoughts [because of liquor] ventured in the wrong direction, sending me on a crash course to Loser-Ville. My grown-up life was littered with depression, alcoholism, addictions, jail, and umpteen suicide attempts. Chaos and near-death experiences were rampant, all on account of drugs and alcohol.

My chaotic life path would eventually come to a sudden halt because of one conversation with the Creator.

Jolee Nick [Spirituality Specialist/Addictions Advisor] says, "Confessions From A Prophet's Past is not only inspiring but also heartwarming. It hit close to home as a recovering addict. I can relate to many of the accounts in this novel. Jeromy is not only able to grasp the reader's heart, but you can feel the energy in his stories. (He draws you into the reads). There is humour, tears, triumph, glory, faith, hope, and last but certainly not least, Godliness!"
