I AM HOPE is a book about survival. Many people who have suffered abuse live in fear, guilt, and shame. Hope shares her testimony of overcoming the shame and guilt of the abuse she suffered as a child. Hope wants the victims of abuse to know they too can be healed. Hope is a survivor and shares how her faith in God released her from a painful past. The bible states in Luke 4:18, The Spirit of the LORD is upon Me, Because He has anointed Me. To preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives, And recovery of sight to the blind, To set at liberty those who are oppressed. This book details the physical and sexual abuse Hope suffered as a child. Hope's transparency is compelling as she shares intimate details of her life. She believes her story of deliverance and the joy of the Lord in her life will impact others to confront the darkness of their past. Fear, shame, and guilt is no longer a part of Hope's biography. She is free and whom the Son has set free is free indeed.
