This is the story of how God transformed the life of Peter Demos from fear, anger, and emptiness into service to His kingdom. By allowing Christ to rule in his heart, Peter became a man who desires to make God the head of his home and his business. Before Peter surrendered his life to God, his marriage was a ticking time bomb, only salvageable by divine intervention. His business was his idol, and he felt immense pressure to run others over with it. Peter was a walking ball of fear, which manifested itself as uncontrolled anger. But Christ changed all that, granting Peter the peace he had not realized was possible. Dedicating his life and his business to God didn't take away all of Peter's problems. Keeping his new restaurant, Peter D's, running was incredibly challenging and the source of some of his biggest business failures. But God used those failures to draw Peter to Himself and make Peter more like Him. Learning to trust God to lead him through it all has turned those difficulties into growth and blessing in Peter's life. "Peter, with humility, gives clear practical examples of how he has brought his faith to his work, how to be bold in the little things, and how to trust God to overcome his fear. His transparency makes his story compelling and shows that a Christian life is not easy but is secure, knowing the love of God for those who believe." -Mark Whitacre, former FBI informant and current President of Operations at a biotechnology firm
