People had been dying off over the county from what turned out to be rattlesnake bites. In about two months time, twenty-four people had died. Both Debo and his Daddy, Mr. T, became aware that there was a way to end the problem with the rattlesnakes and the rats that had been taking over the place. Before they could solve the problem, Debo's daddy was killed by a rattlesnake.
About the Author
Don Bowen is uniquely qualified to discuss addictions, 12-step programs and secular treatment modalities while contrasting them to biblical alternatives. As a counselor and program administrator, he developed and managed several outpatient and residential treatment programs for adults and adolescents. Then as Chief of the Office of Program Development for the State of Alabama's Substance Abuse Services, he spent years regulating programs and advocating the 12-steps as the way to recovery. When tragedy left him homeless, suicidal and headed for prison in 1997, he turned to the Bible for hope. What he learned changed his life and led him to get certified as a biblical counselor where today he works at Eastwood Presbyterian Church's Center for Biblical Counseling in Montgomery, Alabama.
