Beauty for Ashes:
As an author myself, this book is a bit of a challenge to read owing to the continual interruption of thought by the author's restating, rewording and redefining Biblical passages in parenthesis centered in most sentences throughout.
Painfully good.:
Beauty for Ashes was the second Joyce Meyer book I read. This book deals with a heavy subject: how child abuse, specifically sexual abuse, damages your life, and what you can do to be freed emotionally and spiritually from your past. There are a lot of books on the market that deal with childhood sexual abuse (though not enough), but, aside from "The Courage to Heal," this is, hands down, the best. It's practical and empathetic, and, in my copy, almost every single page has something scribbled in the margin... more info Everyone Deserves the Beauty God Gives Them:
What an amazing book. Not just for women or so-called survivors of abuse. This book has so much tremendous wisdom on how to live a victorious life -- no matter what your past is. I recommend this book so highly, I've purchased a copy for everyone who is important in my life. Must read!
Wonderful Biblical applications for hope and healing:
This is a wonderful read for anyone who wants to live a Biblical life, but just can't seem to get over the hurts of abuse and betrayal. Joyce Meyer writes in her straight forward yet compassionate transparency. In this book, she takes the reader on a hope filled, "get from there to here" journey. I wish I had read this book a long time ago. Similar Products:
