| Publisher Description: This book is about a young lady sitting in an ordination service for her father to become a bishop. As the compliments are being given to him, her mind thinks about the sexual and physical abuse she suffered at his hands. This little girl keeps her secret for her safety for her pastor and an elder of the church by using scriptures to allow the sexual, physical and mental abuse to continue until she runs away. Her unsuccessful life leads to suicidal attempts, mental anguish, depression, then a nervous breakdown. She tries to make up for this great wrong by becoming a pastor and a spiritual counselor. By doing this it keeps her in close contact with her attackers. The fear, anxiety attacks and nightmares cause behavior disorders while she tries to raise her own children. |
