The deep pain of childhood abuse--whether physical or emotional--doesn't just go away.
But it is possible to become whole and happy.
In this compassionate book, Dr. Gregory Jantz helps you understand the effects of childhood abuse on your emotional, intellectual, physical, relational, and spiritual health. He then walks you through the steps to lasting healing, including grieving what was lost, learning to balance emotions with intentionality, regaining a positive relationship with your own body and mind, and coming to an understanding of God, not as a frightening authority figure or an accusing judge but as a loving Creator, Redeemer, and friend.
