It never even occurred to me that I wouldn’t be a rock star. Wouldn’t be rich and famous and live happily ever after. Why would it? I had looks,

talent, loving family that supported me, and most important an unshakable belief in God. A deep understanding that he had great things in store for me. A God I don’t say these things out of ego, but from a place of humility, ashamed that I didn’t appreciate what I had. I let it go to my head. got caught up in sin and lost my way. It happened so easily. I didn’t know, couldn’t possibly understand, that sometimes our gifts aren’t for us they are to be used in the service of our Lord Jesus Christ.

The truth can be ugly, mine is hideous, but I am going to be blatantly, painfully honest because my personal heart- ache and tragedy were my real gifts. Those gifts would allow me the strength to spend my life in pursuit of Him, and the courage to let go and let God take the wheel and drive. In my struggle He showed my purpose, in nding my way back He taught me how to be a tour guide, lead- ing others out of their own darkness, and back to the light of His love.

Driving Naked is my life exposed and unedited taking you down my road less traveled, as I recognized and confront- ed myself. The story of how, with God’s power, I was able to move from wannabe to what God wanted me to be and find true and lasting peace.
