Sacred Scars

Book excerpt: We all endure trials, pain, and hardship in this life. The enemy often uses those experiences to convince us that our brokenness disqualifies us from ever being used by God again--that we can no longer be a testimony because of our emotional or physical scars. The truth is, your past pain and brokenness actually serve as preparation for what God wants to do in you and through you, if you will but surrender to and trust in him. In Sacred Scars, neuropsychologist and fellow sufferer Dr. Michelle Bengtson helps you · understand suffering through a biblical perspective · discover how the trials of your life serve a purpose · reflect on the healing that God has accomplished · comfort others with the comfort God has given you Just as Jesus's scars didn't disappear after his resurrection, our scars tell our story and lend credence to our testimony of the love and power of God. If you are ready to turn your past pain into present comfort and future hope, let Dr. Bengtson be your compassionate guide.
