In this inspiring book, Kevin Fitzgerald takes us on an amazing journey of self-discovery in which he "loses it all," only to discover that, in truth, he has gained everything.

Even more amazing, God begins to talk to him, teaching him how to forgive and build a solid foundation for his life. Through a series of remarkable and inspiring dialogues with the Source, Kevin discovers that his losses are all part of a divine initiation--a brilliant and intricately orchestrated plan to help him "wake up" to his inherent divinity and his true purpose in life. He also discovers that his ex-wife is one of the main instruments in his awakening, and that Spirit is creating opportunities for people everywhere to use forgiveness in order to purify their minds and open to their divine birthright. For all those who find themselves struggling with life's daily challenges, this book is a message of hope and inspiration--a shining example of how we can all use our most difficult relationships to strengthen our spirits and turn suffering into joy and fulfillment.
