The Cry of the Soul showed me what to do with my anger and hurt--not stuff it under the carpet of ..."

"Enfance déchirée est un ouvrage remarquable.
Il va bien au-delà d'idée superficielles sur le changement, mais reste néanmoins solidement ancré sur le fondement biblique quand il explore l'abîme des ravages occasionnés par l'abus sexuel. Je le considère vraiment comme un travail pionnier. Il n'est pas le dernier mot d'une approche biblique dans l'aide apportée aux victimes d'abus, mais il en est bien plus que le premier. L'argumentation ..."
