The pain that happened to you is real . . . and it matters immensely.
The notion of healing what you can't erase is not about ignoring the devastation of your past or putting a glossy, positive spin on current tragedy. That plastic version of faith isn't actually faith; it's unbelief.

Through story, instruction, action steps, and guided questions, you'll discover
. why transformation beats willpower and self-help
.how to recognize and heal a broken spirit
. well-researched, biblically grounded strategies to revitalize your mental and emotional well-being
. how inside-out integrated transformation changes your spirit, soul, and body
Whether you're wrestling with the loss of a marriage, a fractured friendship, a betrayal at work, or a chronic illness, there is hope. No matter your pain or traumatic experience, the Holy Spirit can heal and restore you to the life God created you for.
