What happens when a childhood marked by pain refuses to let go-and faith refuses to let fail?

In The Yellow House: Foundations, Ronald Lee Sparks opens the door to a life shaped by family fracture, emotional wounds, and the search for meaning. Growing up in South Central Ohio, Sparks navigates loss, anger, and choices that pull him toward darkness while quietly setting the stage for something greater.

This first book in a three-part autobiographical series traces formative years with unflinching honesty, revealing how hardship, missteps, and broken relationships still carried the seeds of purpose. Each memory, whether tender or devastating, points toward a larger story unfolding beyond immediate understanding.

Readers will:

• Witness a raw coming-of-age marked by struggle and survival
• Explore how faith emerges slowly through pain rather than comfort
• Discover hope rooted in perseverance, not perfection

Open these pages and step into The Yellow House, where beginnings matter and redemption starts long before it shows its face.
