Author, Barbara Smith, through her book, FROM ASHES TO GLORY, Discusses how one can Recover from the Trauma of Sexual Abuse
Atl.,
April 21, 2008 – Licensed minister, author and former nurse,
Barbara Smith, discusses in a candid, friendly, and conversational tone
the biblical and medical perspectives of rape in From Ashes to Glory.
Having worked as a nurse for some twenty years, Smith has firsthand
experience working with rape victims and those who have been the
victims of sexual abuse, as well as with their families. The love of
Jesus Christ radiates through her as she explains how women are left
feeling after undergoing such a devastating experience.
Pulling from her understanding of the Scriptures, Barbara Smith uses
the life of Tamar, King David's daughter, who herself was a victim of
rape, as the foundation stone for From Ashes to Glory.
With much patience and wisdom, she walks victims through the recovery
process. This book is so anointed that after reading the truths
contained therein, anyone will be taken from a life of hopelessness to
a life full of hope in Jesus Christ.
In the foreword, Delores "Mom" Winans writes: "In From Ashes to Glory,
I am mesmerized by how Barbara takes a topic as serious as rape, and
explains how women are left feeling after such a devastating
experience. She dissects and discusses the topic from several
aspects, reaching the secular world through her hands-on experience
with rape victims as a nurse for many years, and shaking the spiritual
world both with her unique explanation of the very interesting story of
Tamar, and by 'putting us in remembrance' of the duties God gave us to
perform."
