Some forks in the road simply provide an interesting side trip or a detour around an obstacle. Others alter the very shape and meaning of a person’s life. As Ed Cook writes, “My new life began the day I didn’t kill myself.” Choosing life on April 28, 1976, resulted in Ed’s life subsequently moving in an entirely different direction. That day began a journey into recovery that was paralleled over the next fifteen months by a journey from atheism to faith. What could have been a very sober story is kept enjoyably readable by infusions of wit and wisdom. Hearing another’s story often prompts us to think about our own stories and thereby learn what would have remained hidden had our lives remained unexamined.
You may find that by reading Prisoner of Hope: A Story of Recovery and Redemption that you learn more about yourself than about Dr. Ed Cook.
