Book Reviews
About the Book by A. Lindstrom:
Just Before Dawn offers a treasure trove of insight, inspiration, and guidance for the survivors of abuse and those who come alongside them in the healing process. The struggles of the healing journey are spelled out in detail, complete with the stumbling blocks survivors commonly encounter. This hope-renewing book features informative and helpful articles, letters, poems, artwork, and personal stories from survivors in various stages of the difficult healing process. While not minimizing the difficulties of the path to healing, this book offers practical, Biblically-based advice to help the reader challenge the false beliefs which abuse victims typically fall into, along with help in understanding the coping mechanisms which survivors employ, and the behaviors which keep them living in pain long after the abuse has stopped.
Just Before Dawn is a valuable read for trauma survivors, their spouses, therapists, and families. The author does not shy away from such difficult topics as Dissociative Identity Disorder or ritual and sexual abuse; she handles these issues with knowledge, concern, and experience, leaving the reader at once understanding the darkness survivors live in and the true promise of the dawn which healing can bring to even the most shattered of lives.
About the author:
In her work as a Biblical lay counselor, Pam specializes in ministering to survivors of severe abuse. From individual counseling and leading small groups to maintaining a website on Dissociative Identity Disorder, she uses her knowledge and experience regarding healing from abuse to equip survivors and those who help them for the process, with its pitfalls and triumphs. Additionally, Pam is an inspirational conference and retreat speaker who possesses a rare insight into the complex and difficult issues surrounding the spiritual aspects of healing from abuse.
