The Truth About the Big Lie

Addicts and Those Who Love Them
Foreword by Les Brown

I will only try this once. I am not an addict. I can quit at any time. To every addict, these words are all too familiar.

Drug addiction has destroyed the moral fiber of many communities and penetrated every level of society. The reach and grip of addiction go beyond age, race, economics, education, and political boundaries. No matter how long you have been an addict or how low you have fallen, you can fully recover and remain free.

Dwight speaks candidly about his addiction to crack cocaine and alcohol and the toll it took on his family and aspirations. After falling for the “Big Lie” he made a conscious decision to begin writing a new story for his life based on the truth of God’s Word.

Dwight’s story will not only be a ray of hope for anyone struggling with addiction, but it will also be an encouragement to their family and friends.
