The author tells how he had been searching for happiness since his youth. His alcoholic father was the town drunk and beat his mother, who died shortly after the boy graduated from high school. In this climate, his hatred for his father grew day by day, and he hoped to kill him when he grew up.
He had tried to look for answers in religion without finding them, so he sought happiness in culture, prestige and fun, but in vain.
The moment he decided to write a book against Christianity, he was confronted with overwhelming proof that the Word of God is truth. There he surrendered and truly turned back. This led him to forgive his father who, after seeing the change in his son, accepted Jesus and stopped drinking.
The testimony of the drunkard's change in the village then caused another hundred people in the area to turn to Christ.
