Eddy Beckendorf was raised in a New Orleans home marred by domestic violence. Following the sensational killing of his philandering police officer father by his mother, he descended into an abyss of mental anguish and pain. A failing student and high school dropout, he was a lost soul in a sea of despair who seemed to encounter tragic events at every turn, until he turned to the Lord. A renewed reliance on God brought symmetry to his life and established a path that led him to become a decorated law enforcement officer, corporate manager, and deacon in the Catholic Church. Through homilies and counseling sessions, Deacon Eddy has, for the past three decades, used the harsh experiences of his past to serve as a GPS for others seeking an exit ramp from their own despair. There was a time when he wondered why God brought him such misery. Now, he realizes the challenges provided him insights that most clergymen do not possess as they digest and pontificate on growing secularism, disappointment, violent crime, domestic abuse, injustice, and various ills of society. The Silver Bullet of Faith is Deacon Eddy's story, an inspiring narrative of faith told against the backdrop of historical events in one of the country's quirkiest cities.
