"""I personally found the book to be a powerful personal appeal from the heart of someone who truly cares about people enough to share pertinent and practical steps for those who recognize their need. The capstone, for me personally, was the ""personal application paraphrase"" of Revelation 12:11, where the author inserted his name, then encouraging readers to do the same, and the additional descriptors added gave greater clarity to the true meaning of that scriptural promise that is at the same time also a prophecy! Thank you for this service! In the providence of God, this book may have been written just for me!"" -Ron Clark ""Living a Victorious Life is written in such a warm and engaging style that it pulls the reader into the author's life story. Bruce opens his heart and tells a story of transformation-of how trials became a blessing. Vulnerability and openness encourage the reader to drop deep into their own life and issues. Bruce follows through by supplying action tools: work sheets such as ""What to do When Tempted"" challenge us to make a personal response to topics of change. ""Friends,"" be an overcomer, follow Bruce's lead, and put on the ""heavenly armor"" (study, prayer, and God's promises). Now, battle daily, confident of making wise choices! As an Art Therapist who works with addictions I highly recommend this book."" -Constance Southerly, MA"
