Reader stories

Words from the work.

The work is personal. So are the stories that come from sitting with Scripture, naming what is underneath, and making room for a different response.

These are real reflections from readers who chose to share what the work met in them.

From a special-needs parent

“Before reading this workbook, I carried a weight that felt like it would never fade. I was always on guard, having to defend my son and watch over him.”

“This work gave me language for what I was carrying. I no longer feel that same burden. My son is now four years old and thriving. Thank you, Jesus.”

Reader reflection

“I was carrying hurt, betrayal, inadequacy, and the feeling of being overlooked. The first lesson reminded me that I am not overlooked by the One who matters most. I am sending my sisters and nieces a copy so we can study it together.”

Reader reflection

The Unloved Woman workbook cover
“I was always looking at my spouse for the kind of love that only God can offer. I have learned that although many people will let you down, pray for them. I now see that God's love has not and will never change. I could not see my worth, because I took my eyes off Jesus. I was made to honor Jesus, and when I put Him first, I found my identity in Christ. I now not only have love from Jesus, but I love my husband through the eyes of the Lord and continue to pray for his soul.”
