When I Stopped Running, She Found Me: A Birth Mom's Story
5 Great reasons to buy from us:
In this powerful memoir, the author reflects on the profound journey of reconciling with her past. After experiencing a traumatic event involving a loved one’s assault, she confronts the reality that she had been avoiding her own history. Initially believing that becoming a Christian meant erasing her past, she struggled to support her loved one while grappling with unresolved issues of her own. Driven by a deep inner push, she reopens her closed adoption files, which forces her to face her past head-on. The discovery that her daughter had contacted the courts to learn about her biological mother spurs a journey of self-discovery and healing. Volunteering at a pregnancy center and engaging with its training manual reveals further areas of denial and unaddressed pain. Through this reflective and transformative process, she learns that true healing comes not from running from the past but from embracing and understanding it, ultimately finding a path to inner peace and renewed faith.
