Suffering from Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder is difficult, but ironically, it can be made even worse when it mixes with a person's Christian faith. The additional "layer" of religious faith can further complicate and suffocate a faith that is intended to be a source of peace, comfort, and hope. At one point, the author's struggle with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder brought him to a place of complete desperation and hopelessness. For years, he prayed: "Heal me or kill me."

The common consensus among professionals is that this mental illness is something that one must learn to cope with and manage, but not overcome. Yet, there is hope. Due to God's intervention and a series of events spanning the course of a decade, the author tells his story of how God led him to total and complete freedom from this debilitating mental illness. This is his story including raw moments of honesty and past journal entries.
