Publisher's Summary

I think there is real hope to be found, in the middle of our deepest traumas, in the good news about Jesus Christ. I also think that there is a place for us to find hope and community within the church. Because of these two beliefs, I truly think, distant though it may be, that we may even get to a place of peace within our souls and a place of forgiveness for those who hurt us so much. 

This is a book that has no easy answers, and will offer none. This is a book that tries to get behind the tough questions of why God permits such abuses to occur in this world. Using his own story of childhood abuse, Mez McConnell tells us about a God who is just, sovereign, and loving. A good father who knows the pain of rejection and abuse, who hates evil, who can bring hope even in the darkest place.

Wow

Mez McConnell shared his story of unimaginable childhood abuse and how he has processed it and been transformed by the good news of Jesus, and helps us to consider how we can also be transformed. Highly recommend.
