Susan Scherzer and Amy Schmidt are women of great faith who speak God’s wisdom. Their words of encouragement gave us the inspiration we needed at just the right time.

And of course, I need to thank Kelly, my wife, who has always been there for me … she is my rock.

Finally, we are humbly grateful to God, who called upon the least expected, and inspired me to begin this message of hope and restoration—not just for me, but for all of us who need forgiveness.

We hope you have enjoyed reading The Ravine, and that it will inspire you to personally explore the issues raised in the book. We are very grateful for the tremendous response we have received from many of the readers of the book. Some have even told us the story has changed their lives.

Several readers have requested that we create a study guide to better aid book groups and others who wish to dig deeper into the questions of forgiveness, hope, and the afterlife. The study guide is available at our website and can be downloaded free of charge. We invite you to use it in book groups and any other appropriate forums.

At this site, you will also find blog posts by Robert Pascuzzi, pod-casts and videos of appearances by Robert, and links to other inspirational sites. You can read what others are saying and contribute to the dialogue on our message board, as well as communicate with the author.

One of the unexpected blessings is that the message of God’s forgiveness as told in The Ravine has truly resonated with those who are incarcerated. We have been asked by several correctional institutions to contribute books, and have begun a mission to donate copies of the book to people who are presently incarcerated. If you would like to join in this endeavor, please go to www.timeforforgiveness.com and help us in this cause. All of the money collected will be used to purchase copies for inmates.
