Publisher's Synopsis
"Rod has captured the "ups and downs" and the "twists and turns" of his personal journey from sin to salvation in this, his first book. He spares nothing in allowing us to see what commitment to Jesus means for him, his wife, and his family."
-- Rev. Cindy Dunnett, Clyde-Carleton Pastoral Charge
Rod Bezanson has survived many roller coasters, the most challenging being life itself.
Growing up on the south shore of Nova Scotia, he enjoyed catching snakes, building tree forts, and swimming in the ocean. His teenage life was filled with drugs, video games, and mastering the Rubik's Cube. Then everything changed.
Rod, aka "Buzz," experienced a transformation when Jesus changed his confused life. You need to read it to believe it! After his born-again experience, he embarked on a new journey to Bible school in New Brunswick began. You will be amazed at those stories.
He married Tammy Hadley in 1991, and the ministry coaster took them to Ontario, Nova Scotia, and PEI, where they worked with every age group. They are still pastoring youth after twenty-eight years. Between many pastoring positions, Rod has worked in carpentry, masonry, roofing, chimney maintenance, lobster fishing, and janitorial services. Anything to feed the family, right?
Their greatest legacy is their children. Brent (22), Nathan (20), and Carla (18) are the inspiration of their lives. This part of their roller coaster is intense as they deal with driving, graduations, college, moving out, and feeding animals. Hold on, if you can.
You will be challenged, encouraged, and shocked by some of the things Rod and Tammy dealt with in life. They have persevered when life was really hard, and Rod lived to write about it. He even visited Haiti and brought back some scary items.
Get ready to enjoy the ride.
