Beyond the Scars: Life is Defined by Who You Are, Not Your Circumstances

by Matt Manzari

When bad things happen, how will you respond? You don’t see it coming. Whether it is a bad diagnosis, a failed relationship, an accident, an injustice—your life changes in an instant. Let’s face life can be hard, even cruel. Life happens to each of us. When faced with a challenge, a setback, or failure, how you respond can make all the difference in your future. You can’t always dictate the events that happen to you. But you can change the results, one decision at a time. Let this inspiring story of tragedy and triumph give you the courage, the hope, even the faith, to believe that when your life doesn’t turn out quite like you planned, it can still be good—even AMAZING!

Amazing true story with so much to teach us about trusting and loving God. Wonderful testimony on the perseverance he went through with so much pain and also the strength of his wife living with the unknown future for both of them.. That is Faith!!

It is amazing what this man has lived through. This book is geared to make one stop and evaluate their own life struggles….and how you respond or react, how you choose to live, be an overcomer or just sit down and say “oh well.”

Matt's story is incredibly inspiring! I had the pleasure of meeting and talking with him and was blessed by his humility and love for Jesus! We can all live our lives beyond the scars, it's a matter of choice.
