From Bust to Boom

About this book

College graduation can mean opening doors to wonderful opportunities. But what if you end your college career as a drug-dealing substance abuser with no idea what to do next? Are you doomed? That is how author Christian Dell ended his college career. In his inspirational memoir From Bust to Boom: Finding God in the Middle of the Oil Boom, shares the story of his progress from addiction to a full life in Christ. He left college floundering in a spiral of self-destructive behaviors. When he goes to work as an oil-equipment salesman in North Dakota, he begins a harrowing journey fraught with tests that strain his faith in all areas of life, from tragic deaths to the pull of cults. But he also learns about life outside bad habits, unsavory characters, and guns. From the depths of self-destruction, Dell learns how to fill his life with Christ. From Bust to Boom: Finding God in the Middle of the Oil Boom shows you how one can go from despair to a true, living, loving relationship with God. It's not a perfect or easy life, but it's well worth the ride.
