"The way to reach God's will is to go through life's trials & struggles. It means that to achieve any sort of heavenly state we must be tested. We are guaranteed to fail some of those tests. That's ok as long as we learn from them and find the strength to continue traveling the road. We become stronger by overcoming our failures and ultimately find the strength to reach our destination."

"Larry is a modern-day crusader, The Larry Ray Hardin that you will see in much of this book is a younger, angrier version than the one I came to know in San Diego. What makes Larry's journey great is not just that he refused to be lured in by corruption as he walked the path through hell. What makes it great is that he learned from his failures along the way, replaced anger with wisdom, and continued to walk the road to heaven."
