The first thing you should know is that there are two authors here. We are two women who met through a Christian website. We’ve never met in person and live about a thousand miles apart. We are both survivors of childhood abuse — emotional, physical, and sexual. We both believe in one true and real Father who rescues, heals, and loves broken people like us.
The next important thing to know is that we don’t have all the answers. We share our stories in the hope that you may believe that you are not alone and that God wants better for you. Feel free to add your comments here. We welcome your thoughts, your impressions and your stories. May God bless you in your journey.

I came across your site while searching for Dan Allender’s “False Guilt” book. I am about to blog on False Guilt.
Anyways, looks like a great site. I will be back.

Blake, welcome and glad that you popped in. Dan Allender is an amazing and annointed author, one of my favorites. The Lord has used his writings to bring understanding and clarity, which also enabled me to find the courage to remove the bandaids that covered my wounds and to open them up to the work of the Holy Spirit.
We hope you will be back and share your journey with us.
Blessings.
God bless you both and your ministry through this site.
