God's voice came to author Dolores Dodds in her darkest hours. As her thoughts screamed at herYou're worthless! No one wants you, and no one will love you! You're stupid and weak!the Spirit of God pleaded with her, "Dolores, you know that I am real and that heaven and hell are real. Killing yourself won't end your pain; it will just make it worse."
Dolores grew up lost, in pain, hopeless, feeling unloved, and searching for that elusive connection in all the wrong places. A product of the 1970s, she read the decade's headlines sorrowfully: God is Dead. She was part of a lost generationthe hippie era full of free love, drugs, partying, and spoiled with overabundance.
Then, the Living God stepped in and poured out His spirit, and the hippies became the Jesus People. In Road of SorrowsLife of Joy, Dolores Dodds shares her miraculous transformation from a life of sorrow to the most exciting, joyful, loved, and purpose-filled life anyone can experience. Along the way, she answers the pressing questionwhat happened to the Jesus People over the last fifty years? Delineating the Living God from Christianity, Road of SorrowsLife of Joy is a testament to the power of Christ's miraculous healing power and the mighty savior's commitment to make brokenness whole and bring light and joy into darkness.
