This is Elizabeth Muffet’s story of murder, corruption and paranormal activity.

Life was busy, enjoyable and rewarding for Elizabeth, a nurse who was newly married and now excitedly preparing for a new addition to the family. She did not expect to suddenly be confronted with a murder next door.

As she navigated many difficult twists and turns as she faced the inevitable drama, she slowly realised there was much more to existing on this Earth than she first thought. She began looking for understandable answers to the obvious questions and thoughts that most people have at some point in their lives:

What is this life really all about?
Surely we don’t just exist for a short time… then nothing?
None of us asked to be born, but here we find ourselves.
What of the curious unseen powers which seem to exist in our realm?
What of the mysteries of death?
And what of the awareness and fear hanging over every one of
us, that we all must face our own death sooner or later?

The Trinitarian and Christological Structure of Things to Come

Dead Inside, Born Again is the raw true story of Jarrod “Soulja” Jones — a man shaped by violence, addiction, homelessness, and loss, who stood at the edge of death and chose life. From the streets of Frankston North to heroin addiction, prison yards, and rock bottom, Jarrod chased freedom everywhere except where it could be found. Yet even in chaos, God was present. Through faith, repentance, and redemption, his scars became testimony. This unflinching memoir is proof that no one is beyond grace, and that what was meant for destruction can be transformed into purpose through Christ.

This book’s purpose is not to argue the validity of each concept. It presents each word as a coherent idea of Christian tradition occurring in passages of the Bible, songs, and scholarly references. Readers will make their own choices of what they wish to believe.

Words of Grace was prompted by the author’s own personal journey of human living and search for understanding. It is written for fellow travellers in a contemporary world that has no shared narrative of human story and purpose, of secular belief and faith. The 18th century idea emphasising individual access to the divine, to science, and to any truth of human knowledge, has become in the 21st century “There is (are) no universal truth(s). There is only my (felt) truth – about anything.”

Whatever the faith position of readers, the ways of feeling and thinking offered here are profoundly influential in finding a personal daily way of human living and being.
