As you go through life, you will undoubtedly encounter crises that will leave you broken and wounded. These could be wounds from a shattered marriage, from a failed business partnership, or even from the elders, pastors, board members or teachers at a church. The question is how you will choose to respond when this occurs. Will you pick up the pieces and move on? Or will you merely content yourself to live in the ruins of your former life?

From Ruins to Rebuilding draws on principles from the book of Nehemiah and demonstrates the process of Israelites went through to rebuild the walls of the city of Jerusalem after they were destroyed. These same principles can be used as a resource for pastors or counselors who are assisting people through difficult life experiences, or they can be used by any layperson who desires a step-by-step process for healing and rebuilding.

    I suggest anyone who has been hurt in the past, to read this book. It redirected my path for the healing of my past hurts. I needed to be reminded that no matter what happens in my life, which is meant to destroy me, God can turn around for His good.
