註釋Variously described as "gripping" and "inspiring" this is a dramatic tale of pain and healing. As a young boy, Mark Edwards nearly ended his life after being abandoned by his parents and spending most of his early childhood in foster homes. The story tells of Mark’s journey into adolescence, the rebellion and escapades in the children’s home, his attempts to cut his wrists, and how he contemplated hurling himself under a train. His feelings of rejection led to an emotional breakdown resulting in psychiatric care. The faith and love shown by an elderly pastor set Mark on the road to recovery, and the reader sees the remarkable transformation from psychiatric patient to father, husband and priest. This is a book with great potential for ministering to people with dysfunctional backgrounds, those with a children’s home background, and those trying to lose unwanted memories. • A dramatic moving story. • Insight into understanding what it is like to be fostered. • Talks of God’s healing power.
