Broken & Chosen
You Don’t Have To Be Qualified. Just Willing.
In this book, Dean shares his unexpected journey of loss, healing, and redemption. Just as his life seemed to be on the right path, a series of traumatic events left him broken and devastated, searching for answers. Yet, through all the pain, God remained faithful, bringing restoration and hope in surprising ways.
This inspiring story serves as a reminder of God’s faithfulness and His ongoing work throughout people’s lives, even choosing them in their brokenness to do amazing things.
