Synopsis

He left KoRn to help himself. He went back to help others. And along the way, he nearly lost everything.A life-changing spiritual awakening freed Brian “Head” Welch from a stranglehold of drugs and alcohol and prompted him to leave the highly successful nu-metal band KoRn in 2005. What followed was a decade-long trial by fire, from the perils of fathering a teen lost in depression and self-mutilation to the harsh realities of playing solo and surviving the shattering betrayal of a trusted friend. In this intensely inspiring redemption saga, perhaps most inspiring is Brian’s radical decision to rejoin KoRn and reconcile with the tribe of people he once considered family in the metal music scene.Brian returned to his musical roots with a clear head and a devoted heart. Though his story is wild, hilarious, and deeply poignant, the message is simple: God will love you into the freedom of being yourself, as long as you keep the relationship going and never, ever quit.

Somewhere out there is a Christian celebrity who's been approached with a book deal and has replied, "Naw, dude. I'm a decent musician/actor/athlete, but 'average' would be a generous description of my Christian life, and I cannot be trusted to put together a coherent and orthodox theological though......more

Goodreads review by Fiona on November 06, 2016

I like to read autobiography and I thought this would be an intriguing read. I haven't read his first book and maybe if I had this would have made more sense. I am not a heavy metal music fan and I found some of the lingo used irritating. Brian Welch has had an interesting life, he's made mistakes an......more
