Job lived his life as a prepared person with established value-driven beliefs that guided his every day decisions. When a critical moment loomed, his daily practice to follow what he believed about God preserved his self worth. Dr. Pat has written a book to help people develop value-driven faith in God's providential care for them just like He cared for Job. They will comprehend a universal importance toward their attitude and actions and determine what God expects from them and what they can expect from God. They will be equipped with pre-determined, action driven responses to help them remain more stabile and retain better health in all situations. Non-prepared people haphazardly search for responsive actions and tend to muddle through troubles with little direction. Consequently, they suffer low self-esteem, develop addictive habits, and complicate their lives with guilt, shame, anger, and blame that negatively influence families and communities. Today, mainstream society does not focus on preparedness to maintain integrity of self but rather on treatment to regain it.

How people handle day-to-day annoyances usually indicates how they will react to big problems. The focus of Clearly Believe & Truly Live is to prepare people for a potentially difficult event so, in a time of great need, they are equipped with God's information and instructions on how to maintain self integrity and avoid consumer-driven remedies like drugs, alcohol, and so on. The book is appropriate to help people journey through their grief and guide them to develop a personal-value system as a proactive method to reduce unwanted conflicts and improve life with added joy. People will become aware of their attitudes and actions in small situations as preparation to face difficult tests.

Readers will be encouraged to know how God can help them conquer addictions, suicidal thoughts, depression, and find strength to forgive. They will learn how God's gift of salvation happens, transformation occurs, the Trinity works to save mankind for eternal purposes, and faith secures their futures. The book is suitable for individual and group study, and is a helpful tool for those who care for others.
