Jesus, Dyslexia, and Me - Paperback

by Terry Montang (Author)

This book is made up of many short stories of Mr. Montang's life with dyslexia as well as him coming to know Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior. As a young boy, Terry experienced being teased, made fun of, ridiculed, and some tried to bully him. He endured being labeled as mentally retarded, having a behavioral disorder, and then placed into a self-contained classroom.

Later, he would be correctly diagnosed with dyslexia. Once in middle school, Terry became active in sports which was a physical outlet for his built-up emotions. His determination and anger drove him to continue to excel in sports throughout high school. With the overwhelming thought of what to do after his graduation, Terry came up with a plan that included joining the army. He also wanted to attend college but wasn't sure that would be feasible.

Dyslexia continued to be a daily struggle throughout college, career, marriage, and family life. With this invisible disability, Mr. Montang has overcome the stigma of dyslexia and found success as a master sergeant in the US Army, served at the Chief of Chaplain's office at the Pentagon, and is currently a business owner.

After Terry returned home after being injured in Afghanistan, the religion that he believed in as a young person changed into a personal relationship with Jesus. His walk with the Lord is stronger today than ever before. His daily prayers are to be a reflection of Jesus to others. God is good all the time-all the time, God is good.
