WHITE STICK
White Stick is Jacqueline Middler's raw, honest personal account of how the decision to abort her baby changed her soul. She offers a firsthand look at the abortion procedure and the aftermath of shame and guilt that led to other poor choices—all in an attempt to dull the pain and the emotional scars caused by her abortions. A fresh encounter with Christianity and a rereading of the creation story and God’s promises began her journey to healing, culminating in her ability to finally forgive herself. She now shares her story to demonstrate to other women who have had abortions that redemption is possible through the gospel message.
SHE WRITES FOR HIM
When we go through hard times we long for those who understand, who have gone down this road before us. This is your tribe. In this second edition of She Writes for Him: Stories of Living Hope you will hear voices of women sharing discoveries of hope, and even joy, they've uncovered in the most unlikely circumstances—the hard places of cancer, addiction, abuse, mental health issues, and suffering. Voices of experience, empathy, and encouragement share the shock of a cancer diagnosis, the need for a support structure, and how to endure the long haul of treatments. When addiction reaches into a family, one woman finds a way to honor her alcoholic father, another shares how to deal with addicted family members, and a third shares her path to triumph over a very real food addiction. From mental and spiritual abuse to the often-hidden shame of mental illness, to escaping the violence of an outlaw gang, women relate their candid true-life stories. These transparent accounts of finding the hope Christ gives will strengthen your faith and bring you inspiration for the circumstances of your own life.
