Not what it says it is,
By A Customer
This review is from: Door of Hope: Recognizing and Resolving the Pains of Your Past (Paperback)
This author writes about HER healing but gives the impression it is about and for others. I think it is good for victims to find their way to healing and writing a book is often a helpful tool, however this author leads one to believe this book is about others, when it is really about herself. She dangles the stories of other people but uses them as a vehical to return the story to herself. I find that kind of "help" not helpful at all because it leaves much unfinished and becomes singular in it's purpose. Congratulations to the author for finding her voice but please be honest about the purpose of the book.

A solid work intended for mainstream Christians,
By A Customer
This review is from: Door of Hope: Recognizing and Resolving the Pains of Your Past (Paperback)
The author writes from personal experience and from her religious ethnocentric fundamental Christian viewpoint. She has appeared on the 700 Club, so if you identify with and watch that you will find this book very inspiring.However, Christians who are not part of the mainstream will find her assumptions and explanations about Jesus, God, and certain scriptures irritating, annoying, and just plain wrong. I speak as one of Jehovah's Witnesses. I did not think the author was homophobic. If you can ignore her religious assumptions you will find her book a positive experience. Forgiveness is possible even for child molestors. After all, if Jehovah God can forgive wicked King Manassah for his sins, which included the sacrifice of his children, a child molestor can be forgiven for the harm done to a victim.

Finally help and hope!,
By Merrie Henderson (Wichita, KS United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Door of Hope: Recognizing and Resolving the Pains of Your Past (Paperback)
This is by and far the best book I've seen on dealing with sexual abuse as well as other traumatic hurts in life. Through this, Jan was honest about her own healing process and was willing to make herself vulnerable in sharing. I'm so grateful for a resource written so openly from someone who's been there. I've read others that are informative but this contains an honesty and openness and is personal in a way that the others are not. This book has truly changed my life and continues to help me in the process of healing! Thanks Jan!!
