Secret Shadow

By all appearances Lawanda’s father was a conscientious Christian and dedicated family man raising his children to be respectful and obedient. But this carefully cultivated image was far from the truth.
Lawanda and her siblings knew all too well what their father was really like. Living in the dark and secret shadow of her father’s abuse and hypocrisy, Lawanda suffered silently, nursing a terrible load of anger and rebellion. She struggled, wanting to do the right thing, but often yielding to fear and bitterness. Lawanda needed help – desperately. But who could help her? Who would love her the way she was? She trusted no one.
(Not a book for children or young teens, this true story will awaken your heart to the possibility of a Lawanda living near you. And to anyone living with a dark secret and struggling with sinful responses and attitudes, Lawanda’s story is a strong affirmation that restoration and peace can be found under the shadow of the Almighty.)
