Synopsis

FIREFIGHTING WITH GOD is a memoir with a difference. Reviewed as ‘for everybody who is willing to look inward and learn’; ‘a gift to read'; ‘insightful’; and as being ‘hooked by its realism, humour and honesty’. A seemingly innocuous childhood. The heartbreak and trauma of a marriage that failed, despite two wonderful children. A surprisingly successful and joyful thirty years as a Firefighter surrounded by death and serious injury-experiencing every emotion possible. Finally, breaking down at fifty and asking for help. The solution being an almost complete change of direction- including training to become a personal counsellor Firefighting with God is not a religious book, but rather a roadmap for helping you to find your way should you be lost. It is a book about having the courage to believe in finding the love within and, should you need to, the ability to Love another. A seed planted in ideal growing conditions will grow strong and in an ideal way. A seed planted in less than ideal growing conditions will need help and support to grow, but it can and it will.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Born in the late forties, just after the war, to older hard working parents who found it hard to show affection and encouragement meant I would always be searching for Love. School was a mystery; upon leaving my father secured me a job as a carpenter, and I became a Fireman almost by accident. Predictably I led a chaotic life and made decisions with virtually no understanding of the consequences. My first moment of clarity, a light bulb moment if you like, having asked for help, was to find myself interested in a spiritual way of thinking. What resonated with me the most was the idea of there being no such thing as a coincidence and that everything in life is meant to be. The second came while training to be a counsellor and beginning to understand how I was shaped by my earliest years. Combining the two together meant I was able to look at life in a very different way; I stopped being a victim.
