From a Criminal Mind to the Mind of Christ
by
Book Cover & Preview Text
I have spent a total of twenty-one months in jail when I was in my early twenties. I was involved with crime, drugs, and a host of other sins. Not only did I indulge in these activities as a way of life, but I have dearly loved other people who are involved with these behaviors. I know what it is like to have a mind focused and enthralled by crime, and I know the beautiful contrast of flowing in the mind of Christ. Jesus, Who is Lord of all, set me free from many grievous sins and set my feet upon solid ground. He has given me a purpose higher than anything I could have ever imagined, and I want everyone who reads this book to experience Christ’s love for themselves. The life of Christ is a dynamic, life-changing offer, graciously given to you from God Himself.

About the Book
“FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD THAT HE GAVE HIS ONE AND ONLY SON, THAT WHOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM SHALL NOT PERISH BUT HAVE ETERNAL LIFE.” - JOHN 3:16 Grace – the undeserved favor of God. But will His grace be sufficient in our lives in our most desperate times of need? Yes! In this dynamic, inspiring testimony you will see how the grace of God kept and preserved Melody Wolfe through incarceration, mental illness, crime and addiction. You will discover how Jesus, the Word of God according to John chapter one, heals and rescues us from the domain of darkness and sets our spirits free to rejoice in God’s holy presence. At the age of 22, Melody was sentenced to serve a two-years-less-a-day sentence in a local correctional facility. By the age of 24, she had spent a total of twenty-one months in jail. She was diagnosed with mental illness and spent years in recovery. After the death of her husband, she lost custody of both of her daughters and was ensnared by addiction. Following an almost fatal suicide attempt, Melody was admitted into a psychiatric facility. It was there that she experienced the love of Christ in a powerful way. Melody is now serving the Lord Jesus in her church and community. She is an advocate for persons living with mental illness and has a deep desire to share the gospel of Jesus Christ to the world. Melody has since been restored to her family. Let this beautiful example of Christ’s love encourage you today!
