You often hear the statement "knowledge is power," but how is knowledge obtained? This book explores the concept that knowledge is obtained via access, with access becoming the ultimate power.

We would not know anything without access to sources of knowledge. This memoir was written to show examples of how God intervened in Melvin E. Alleman's life to grant him access necessary to arrive where he is in life today.

Alleman believes all of us can trace our success or failure in life back to doors and gates we encountered along our personal journey. We need motivation to open them, and we need the ability to discern the good paths from the bad.

Are you simply going to rely on your own (or your friends/co-workers) knowledge and its associated power to get through your life, OR are you going to use your divine access to obtain a wisdom larger than yourself, with potentially unlimited and everlasting knowledge?
