On the night of Matt Fleming’s twenty-first birthday, his friends take him to New Orleans and arrange a date with a prostitute. The night ends in drunken violence, and the prostitute is beaten and left for dead. After thirty years of addiction, Matt finally finds recovery and freedom in a faith-based treatment program. However, even though his old life seems to be behind him, as he has adventure after adventure traveling the country on God’s seek-and-save missions, the incident from his twenty-first birthday proves to be a cause of constant anxiety and regret. Did the prostitute die? Will he one day be arrested and tried for murder? Should he turn himself in and face the consequences? Why is God silent when it comes to the heartrending remorse he carries for the incident? Matt’s travels eventually lead him back to New Orleans, where a special seek-and-save mission demonstrates that his heavenly father has been listening all along. However, this mission may prove to be his last. Even though No Road for Cowards is a novel, it is filled with timeless truths about addiction, recovery, and redemption. It is a story of hope and restoration for those suffering from addiction as well as those who love them. Read it, and be encouraged.

The reason I wrote this book was to make available stories that prove it is not too late. I had discernment that I should write short stories and mix various topics with both humor and eternal consequences. On October 30, 2012, I was on an elevator flirting with several women. I walked off that elevator with an idea: a book about flirting. During the first week of November 2012, I asked Jesus to give me ideas for a book. In 48 hours, the Holy Spirit gave me 130 ideas for a book. Sixty weeks and 950 hours of work later, I have a complete manuscript. The Bible says Im just a filthy rag. Im not a preacher because Im not called and would be unworthy. Im not a teacher because I would have no patience, and Im not a speaker because Im very shy with large groups. Therefore, the printed virgin*. Maybe Im an explainer. I prefer to explain my faults and sins rather than point at others. There is a fine line between being judgmental and attempting to explain the truth. I once was told from an old-fashioned fire and brimstone preacher that he did not judge people, but people judged themselves with their actions. If U are truly told by the Son of God to give someone a message, U better do it. U are not going to like your life for being disobedient. However, U may temporarily not like your life for being obedient. It is a strange dichotomy in the dilemma of life. We have to not wither but have planted seeds in the good ground of life to withstand the persecution. I truly hope those who may feel offended by my humor or Bibles truths . . . will understand that Im speaking from my heart and only want to help, and Im incapable of expressing the right words at the right time in person. Please remember Im in this struggle too. Just because I have written a book . . . does not mean I am exempted from hell. A walk with Jesus and temptation from the devil is a daily battle. I need your prayers. Im a long ways from where I want to be in Christ. Larry
