I would like to dedicate this book to Denny Bellesi,
pastor of Coast Hills Community Church in Aliso Viejo, California.
After a very toxic church experience, you asked me
to do nothing but heal in your church.
You were my first real pastor, and I did heal.
Thank you for your heart and integrity that restored my faith
and led to the creation of this book.
S. A.

Dedicated to my wife and children, Robin, Jack, and Christy
who make my life so enjoyable and helped me realize
the importance of healthy faith in my life.
