Just Over Broke

Bol

What if brokenness was never the end, but the beginning?Malik Carter grew up in a world where survival wasn't guaranteed. Bullets tore through his neighborhood. His father's rage wrestled with his love. His mother's faith was the only light in the shadows. Chicago's streets tried to swallow him whole, but Malik carried something stronger inside: a purpose too heavy to bury.Just Over Broke is more than a memoir, it's a testimony. It's the story of a boy learning to fight bullies at school, shield his younger brother from gunfire, and wrestle with a father whose scars from the streets ran deep. It's the story of first love and heartbreak, promises kept and promises broken, and a soul that found its only true refuge in God.This is not just Malik's story. This is the story of every person who's ever felt unseen. Every dreamer who's ever been told they weren't enough. Every believer who's had to choose between the streets and their soul.Through lyrical storytelling and raw honesty, Darryl J. Gordwin opens the door to a coming-of-age journey that is heartbreaking, redemptive, and unforgettable.If you've ever been broken, if you've ever wondered if God could use your pain, this book will show you: brokenness isn't your ending. It's the soil where your destiny begins.
