About this ebook
In dit boek neemt Robin je mee op reis door zijn leven, door goed en kwaad, waarbij hij zijn fouten en mislukkingen deelt op een manier zoals je vandaag de dag maar zelden ziet. Geen politieke correctheid, geen schone schijn, maar een echte en kwetsbare man die te maken heeft met echte strijd. Van gepest worden in zijn kindertijd, naar een leven van haat en wrok, naar het volgen van Jezus. Van het volgen van Jezus, naar het terugvallen in zonden, naar weer opstaan, naar weer vallen, naar weer opstaan. De strijd was enorm en de worsteling immens. Terwijl hij over zijn falen deelt, deelt hij ook de lessen die hij hieruit heeft geleerd, wat inzicht geeft in de manier waarop de vijand je probeert te verstrikken en hoe je jezelf ertegen kunt wapenen.
Ook al kwam hij uit een leven van vernedering, geslagen worden, bespuugd worden, opgelicht worden en afgewezen worden, toch koos hij voor een leven van vergeving en liefde. Zoals je zult zien was dat niet bepaald makkelijk. Het had niets te maken met hoe hij zich voelde. Er is nog steeds een God Die redt, geneest, bevrijdt en herstelt. Het Bloed van Jezus heeft zijn kracht niet verloren. Vrijheid ligt binnen bereik.

About the author
The Dutch author Robin Prijs is mainly known for his extensive research on the topic of anointing and the use of anointing oil in the Church. As it turns out, his work is one of the very few works that gives such a profound and substantiated insight in these matters. Recently he also published his autobiography, describing the shocking events in his life in a very open and vulnerable way.
Background
Robin was born in the village of Genderen, in the south of The Netherlands. He was born and raised in a Christian family, as the son of a truck driver and a stay at home mom.
Education
Robin grew up in the land of Heusden & Altena, where he also went to primary school. In his teenage years, he went to secondary school in 's-Hertogenbosch. Although he enjoyed learning, he soon became a victim of bullying and encountered problems with his short-term memory. Convinced that he would not want to learn, he was dismissed by the school and never completed his education.
Career
After being dismissed from school, Robin was forced to start working. At first he started working as a production employee at an egg packaging company. To him this work was so depressing, that there had to be something he could do to move up in life. Since he was good was computers, he started to apply at several IT companies, but hundreds of applications and several interviews later, he still wasn't hired anywhere. Finally, when he had worked as a production employee for two and half years, he was hired for his first IT job and started as a helpdesk employee. From there he worked his way up to system administrator and jr. technical network engineer at the biggest telecom provider in The Netherlands. Several years later he switched carreers, became an IT recruiter and started his own company. Nowadays he is the manager of LoveUnlimited Ministries and no longer has his recruitment company.
Religion
Although born and raised in a Christian family, he turned away from the Christian faith during his teenage years and gave his life to satan at the age of 17. Only two years after that he found his way back to Christianity and surrendered his life to Jesus Christ, Whom he has been following ever since. He doesn't consider himself part of any denomination, but comes closest to being a charismatic Christian.
Politics
Robin is not affiliated with a political party, but is a fierce opponent of socialism, which he describes as a failing system and one of the biggest dangers of a free civilization. He also loves to quote from one of his personal heroes, Mr. Winston Churchill, and finds in particularly his quotes on socialism brilliant, profound and very true.
Connections
He is married with Esther Prijs-van Wijk. The couple has no children yet.
