For You: Sharing My Story of Overcoming Abuse, For You, For Freedom
Lisa’s childhood was filled with love and adventure—but also the trauma of immense abuse. This early pain led to various difficulties throughout her life; however, her undergirding strength can be seen as her life has been anchored to her God. As you journey through these pages, you will experience a deep sense of peace and joy. You will understand the concept of embracing pain for ultimate healing. The stories shared will help you find a way to freedom from the chains of brokenness, with a little humor mixed in along the way. This book is for you if you have experienced abuse or trauma—or you know someone who has—but also if you just feel lonely sometimes and could use a friend who’s been there, too.

Lisa’s story of hardship rocked my core but the way she turns it back to Gods love for us is so comforting. Whether you are struggling or someone you love is, you’ll find freedom and comfort in her story.
