You bet your life

As weatherman and co-host for ABCs Good Morning America, he thought he had everythinga loving wife and children, a beautiful home, and a rewarding and remarkable career. Yet, he was living a double life. For nearly 30 years, he was a compulsive gambler. By the time he found the courage to confront his dependence, he had lost millions, his home, his job, and most important, his family. You Bet Your Life tells the roller-coaster story of Christians rise to success and crash to rock bottom. It also details his rebounding, rebuilding, and recovering of hope and happiness. This gripping and transparent tale will amuse, shock, and inspire.
