Kathleen is desperate to find peace after years of mental and emotional torment which lead to drug addiction, suicide attempts and several psychiatric hospitalizations. She decides to set out on a spiritual journey of transforming prayer; in the hope of discovering what has been hidden in the caverns of her mind and heart. She is always asking the questions, "What is wrong with me?" and "How can I continue to live in this state of turmoil?" Unbelievable memories of childhood trauma were exposed. Revealing child parts of her heart at different ages, that were imprisoned within the pain and anguish of her past. Now, this pain, that had been locked away, could be safely processed and healed by the power of Jesus' love. Through a loving, healing relationship encounter with Jesus, she would be set free from the lies that had invaded her heart, which in turn kept God's Truth from taking up residence in her soul. Her quest for healing leads her into a spiritual battle for God's Truth to not only be discovered, but most importantly to be believed and received as the only Truth. She must choose to resist, by God's grace, the confusion, bewilderment and perplexity, that arise from the haunting falsehoods that have captivated her soul, from a lifetime of emotional damage. This book is her pilgrimage with Jesus toward wholeness, truth and freedom. The author's hope and prayer would be, that the reader would come to an understanding, that regardless of the pain which has taken place in an individual's life, that the lies which cripple a person are held within their emotional wounds. It is only by the power and love of the cross of Jesus Christ, that one can be brought into the Truth of who they truly are and how much they are loved.

"So what?" That's the response many people have to the Bible. Read a passage, interpret it, and still they ask, "So, what difference does that make in my life?" In the Life Essentials Study Bible, renowned Bible teacher Gene Getz complements the full text of the popular HCSB translation by elaborating on 1,500 principles in Scripture that are as relevant today as when the sixty- six books of the Bible were written. Distilling these truths into principles, Getz helps the reader more easily remember and effectively apply the Bible's wisdom to everyday life. He explains how each of these principles represents a supracultural truth - one that can and should be applied at any moment in history and in every cultural situation. In addition, the Life Essentials Study Bible was created with an integrated digital study system--more than 250 hours of free online coaching content led by Getz--that fosters a greater understanding of the Bible's grand story. Along the way, Getz adds pertinent questions in print to inspire personal reflection or group discussion of each principle. There's also an introduction to each book of the Bible and its list of corresponding principles, plus a topical index and cross references for all 1,500 principles. Other features of this dynamic study Bible - available in six different editions - include a two-piece gift box (leather editions only) as well as a presentation page. "Owning a copy of this astounding project containing the prodigious work and wisdom of my friend and mentor Gene Getz will be like having him in the next room -- available to advise me on every passage. Being able to access his video teaching on each of the 1,500 ‘Principles to Live By’ is a breakthrough approach, making this truly the first multi-media study Bible. What a treasure! I know it will inform my own writing." Jerry Jenkins, owner, Christian Writer's Guild, and author of the Left Behind series
