What's Wrong With Me?
A Journey of Emotional Healing in a Broken World
Pastor Royce Alan Alford has been involved in the mental and emotional health field for more than 20 years. His journey has brought hope to thousands of people who have suffered from emotional, mental, and spiritual illnesses.
"What's Wrong With Me?" is a true story about Royce Alan Alford's search for healing for those who suffer from mental, emotional, and spiritual illnesses. When depression affected his own family, he was driven to find an answer, which ultimately led him to develop "Freedom Prayer." He believes that Jesus sets captives free, and his journey has shown that this is possible, even when many in both secular and Christian communities do not believe that it is possible to be completely healed of such afflictions.
However, when it was his own turn to face the demons that attacked him and made him fear what he might do to those around him, he finally understood just how powerful Freedom Prayer really is. His honest testimony in the pages of this book will reach you at the deepest levels, showing you that there really is hope for even the most seriously afflicted among us.
About Me

In this book, he takes us on his personal journey to freedom from his inner prison.
These thoughts and hundreds more like them are the “Black Plague” of our day. They are the unseen killer that causes hundreds of thousands of deaths. Trauma, neglect, abuse, lack, or simply the feeling of being different can lead to beliefs that control us from the inside out.

His two sons live nearby along with 5 grandchildren. His wife, children, daughters-in-law, and grandchildren all attend his church and are his best friends. He shares his testimony with you in these pages. If you dig deep and can see beyond the surface of his words, it may bring a new perspective you have never experienced before.
