In Beauty for Ashes she outlines major truths that brought healing in her life and describes how other victims of abuse can also experience God's healing in their lives. You will learn: * How to Deal with the Emotional Pain of Abuse * How to Understand Your Responsibility to God for Overcoming Abuse * Why Victims of Abuse Often Suffer from Other Addictive Behaviors * How to Grab Hold of God's Unconditional Love * The Importance of God's Timing in Working Through Painful Memories.

Many of us whether we realize it or not have had things in our life that hurt us deeply. This book started a healing process in my life! I didn't know where to start but Joyces book takes you step by step. I bought several extra books thinking that as God works in my life that maybe he would also put in my path other hurting people that could benefit from this book. That was a few weeks ago and I only have my copy left. Great book!
May God bless your journey with all his love and healing powers.

INCREDIBLE teaching by an extremely anointed pastor! This is about the fourth or fifth copy I've purchased. Great for gifts and to share with loved ones who have been abused in any form......verbal, emotional, physical, etc.
Very balanced teaching straight from the Word of God!

From what I have read thus far this book is excellent for any Christian counselor or Women's Ministry. It has many truths hidden within on how to be delivered and set free from the bondage of one's past. The chapters are short enough to allow for personal devotional as well. This book will be used as a teaching tool to help build up an outside evangelism street ministry for prostitutes, abused & abandoned women!

This book was my second Joyce Meyer Book, and I have to say being a survivor of abuse myself, this book helped me to understand how to overcome all the bitter, and hate I had towards myself as well as others, I would recommend this book to all survivors as well as family of survivors.
