Publisher's Summary

Soft, smooth, and lustrous, a pearl offers a wonderful symbol for the human experience. Its beautiful polished surface conceals the difficulty with which it was created - by a living creature struggling with its environment. 

The same can be said of the human spirit. Often it is only when we are confronted with adversity that our souls are transformed to reveal the powerful, radiant life-force within. Dr. Bettie Youngs shares real-life pearls, the inspiring stories of people who have been transformed by the hardships they've faced - emerging stronger, wiser, and more alive than they have ever been. As a celebration of the power of the human spirit, A String of Pearls shows us how tough times can help us be more resilient, more accepting, and thrive in a difficult world. 

Dr. Bettie Youngs is an internationally renowned author of 26 books published in 29 languages. She is a former Teacher of the Year, university professor, and frequent guest on TV and radio talk shows.
