Shining light into the depths of darkness... "Lisa Kessler-Peters invites you on a healing journey in her new book, How I Learned to Hide. Lisa's deep brokenness began as a child and continued into adulthood. Reading her healing process will start to break the stronghold of pain, giving you hope and practical steps to receive your healing." -Cindy Stewart, Author and Senior Leader at The Gathering with Jesus In this book, Lisa pulls from her own experiences and education-breaking down walls of misinformation-and revealing a transparent method of healing from childhood trauma and building healthy relationships. She explains how layers of shame can lead young victims to addictions, dangerous survival methods as adults, and repetitious behavior through the generations. Her story is raw and straightforward as she shares details about neglect and abuse-and the effects those have on one's mental, physical, and spiritual well-being. Her words serve as a guide to other victims and professionals as she inspires people to rise above the trauma and bondage-through the power of forgiveness-and discover a new self-worth amid God's love. Lisa is a wife, mother, mentor, speaker, and an advocate for social justice. She has dedicated her life to spreading the gift of hope and inspiring those who struggle or contemplate giving up.
