At age sixteen she was on her own, struggling to build a life with no help or support from family or friends. Free of her family, she was later abused by foster dads, church leaders, and even therapists. But she chose victory over victimhood, and along with her husband built a life filled with over 170 foster kids, many of whom had been sexually abused. She tells her story with brutal honesty, more than a little snark, and an unabashed faith in Christ. Her story of how God turned her pain into purpose will inspire and encourage you. --back cover. 541 $d 20221017. 650 $a Abused teenagers $v Biography. 650 $a Christianity $x Religious life. 650 7 $a Overcoming adversity $x Biography. 700 $a Alesandrini, Mary L., $e author. 941 $a 1 952 $l HOPC845 $d 20230104014226.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0DEE0B828C0011EDA40A627456ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
