From the extraordinary work of contemporary artist Patrick Atkinson comes “The Road to Recovery, Searching for Salvation“, a book of Hope and Encouragement for the millions who suffer from the disease of addiction and for all the rest of us who have lost our way.
The artwork is coupled with bible verses and positive, hard edge writings about the artist’s journey from using to detox to recovery and ultimately to his death. While Patrick has eternal life in Heaven, his work lives on as an inspiration to us all. We pray “The Road to Recovery” brings you comfort, that your journey is blessed, your recovery successful, and your life abundant– All these things more glorious than ever imagined.
