Nelson Thomas

Faith by Fire Nelson Thomas

This is the story of how one man found God's purpose for his life through personal tribulations. Nelson Thomas had been a United States Air Force Firefighter for ten years. During that time he had experienced many different depictions of tragedy. But nothing could have prepared him for what was to come. In 2006, Nelson began to experience an overwhelming sum of unfortunate events that would shake his already frail foundation. From the tragic loss of his mother to suicide and insurmountable depression after the fact, to losing a friend and colleague at work, Nelson experienced his own personal form of hell on earth. But what he could not see through all the pain and heartache was the fact that God was sculpting the purpose for his life right in front of him. By embracing the insanity which had become his life Nelson realized that all things are possible through God alone. This is a true story of triumph over tragedy, and finding God on his terms.
