Shattered Soul?: Five Pathways to Healing the Spirit after Abuse and Trauma

Abuse and trauma damages more than body and mind. The soul can also feel wounded. Shame and feelings of abandonment distort and limit one's ability to relate to a faith community and to trust in God. Experiences of abuse can block a person's capacity to pray and worship, and they stunt spiritual growth. Shattered Soul? reveals five pathways of healing for survivors of abuse and guides readers to wholeness, to experience life and faith anew. Included are inspiring stories of survivors who reflect on pathways of courage, holy anger, grief, forgiveness, and transformation. Your spirit will feel whole again! Includes a foreword by Paula D'Arcy, author of Gift of the Red Bird.
