What if the chapters you are most ashamed of are the very ones God wants to use?
In Still Being Written, David Meek invites readers into a life marked by childhood trauma, family dysfunction, military service, combat deployments, PTSD, addiction, divorce, and ultimately, redemption. He takes you back to the streets of East Bakersfield, where instability, poverty, violence, and unanswered questions shaped a young boy searching for acceptance and purpose.
At seventeen, believing his future was already written, David attempted to end his own life. What seemed like the end of his story became the beginning of a journey that would forever change its direction. Through the unwavering love of Pastor Ron and Debbie Vietti, the compassion of people who believed in him before he believed in himself, and the relentless pursuit of a God who never abandoned him, David discovered that grace reaches even our darkest places.
More than a memoir, Still Being Written is an honest account of surviving childhood wounds, overcoming learning struggles, serving twenty years as an Army Major through multiple combat deployments, battling PTSD and addiction, losing nearly everything, and discovering that healing is possible when truth replaces shame and grace becomes stronger than regret.
If you have ever questioned your worth, struggled with trauma, depression, addiction, PTSD, or believed your past has disqualified your future, this book offers a simple but life-changing reminder:
Your story is not over. God does His best work in unfinished stories.
