What would you do if your estranged, homeless, alcoholic father suddenly showed up at your door? What if you knew in three weeks you would be saying good-bye to him forever? One daughter knows deep down that her only choice, for the sake of Christ, is forgiveness—but how?
Adult children of alcoholics and addicts live caged in guilt, shame, depression, and other self-destructive thought patterns. In Three Weeks to Forgiveness, author Kimberly Dewberry addresses distinctive ways to identify forgiveness and create a healthy life through Jesus Christ. With real and raw reflection to empower those dealing with addicted parents, the author encourages readers to overcome the familial cycle of substance abuse and its devastating effects.
About the author
KIMBERLY DEWBERRY struggled for 25 years to cope with the pain, hurt, guilt, regret, unworthiness, and shame caused by her addicted father. As her life devolved into a predictable pattern of poor choices caused by the dysfunctional thinking of an alcoholic household, Kimberly's image of God was skewed with an inner turmoil that only He could heal. Through the loving grace of Jesus Christ, she has broken free from the shackles of rebellion and anger, and has made it her life's mission to openly share her journey through courageous prose. Her heart's desire is to help other adult children of alcoholics identify and overcome unhealthy cycles of destructive living that the specter of alcoholism leaves behind. Kimberly often speaks at recovery meetings about how the serenity and peace of God's redemption are keys to personal wholeness. She also shares biblical insights to everyday problems through her blog, Transforming Normal (www.kimberlydewberry.com). Kimberly has two grown children. She and her husband Patrick live in the Dallas area with their three furry friends. Kimberly enjoys writing, reading, Bible art journaling, participating in Bible studies, and dating her husband.
