What if the worst chapters of your life were not the end of your story, but the beginning of your purpose?

In Damaged Goods: God's Grace in the Middle of the Mess, Shane E. Rowe Sr. offers a powerful, transparent testimony of failure, faith, loss, and redemption. With honesty and spiritual depth, he confronts the labels that often define people by their lowest moments and replaces them with the truth of God's restoring grace.

From childhood trauma and abuse to early ministry, from dropping out of high school to carrying the stigma of shame, criminal labels, divorce, and closed doors, Shane shares his journey of brokenness and recovery with courage and clarity. He reveals how grace met him not after the mess was cleaned up, but right in the middle of it.

This book is not about perfection. It is about healing.

It is not about pretending. It is about freedom

It is not about shame. It is about restoration.

Through Scripture from the King James Version and deeply personal reflection, Damaged Goods guides readers through the reality that healing is not linear, identity can be restored, and calling does not wait for completion. Shane's story reminds us that God does not discard what life has wounded. He redeems it.

This book is for anyone who has ever felt:

• Defined by a mistake
• Disqualified by their past
• Burdened by shame
• Unsure if God could still use them

Damaged Goods declares a powerful truth: you are not broken beyond repair. You are unfinished work in the hands of a faithful God.

If you are searching for hope, restoration, and the courage to believe again, this book will meet you exactly where you are.

Because grace does not give up.

And neither does God.
