God Loves Broken People: And Those Who Pretend They're Not

Written by Sheila Walsh and Pam Farrel

Narrated by Sheila Walsh

The other side of brokenness"If I could write only one book in my lifetime, I would ask God to make it this one, the very book you now hold in your hands. . . ."?Sheila WalshGod loves broken people. And when weary, wounded men and women find a way to open their bruised hearts and somehow welcome Him into their personal darkness, they will find a love beyond anything they have ever known.When the glass house Sheila had lived in for so many years came crashing to the ground, she began a new life outside the safety of those walls. No, it didn't feel good, nor safe?not at all. But it felt true. Sheila saw herself as a broken lamb limping after the Shepherd, not knowing where He was going, but knowing that wherever He went, she wanted to go with Him.In twelve stirring, insightful, and deeply revealing chapters, Sheila Walsh shows how personal brokenness can open doors of intimacy with Jesus Christ that might never open in any other way.It's not that God loves broken people more than those who imagine themselves to be whole?it's simply that they know they are loved. They dare to believe it . . . and through such trust, a new wholeness emerges from yesterday's broken pieces.

Author Sheila Walsh does a marvelous job of displaying the love of God to those who are wounded and broken in this hurtful world.She helps the reader to understand that whether you are a young or mature Christian you will face various trials and broken moments within your life. While the believer changes God's love for them never does. She shares how there is nothing that a believer will face that God isn't prepared for and ready to help in the time of need. He never runs from trouble so the believer should run to Him rather than away when these moments occur.There are great thoughts for the individual reader as well as for small groups. Also included is a Bible Study section in the book that corresponds with each chapter.This is a definite 5 of 5 stars and must read for every believer.Disclosure of Material Connection: I received this book free from the publisher through the BookSneeze®.com book review bloggers program.
