About this title

From the Back Cover:

There is a hidden place inside you filled with limitless freedom, love, peace, and compassion in Christ. How can you discover it? Betty Skinner, a dedicated Christian wife and mother, was hospitalized with clinical depression in the 1960s, before modern therapies were available. As a result, Betty had to find her way to wholeness through determination and utter dependence on God. It was a frustrating and often lonely journey, but over time, God redeemed her dark, broken places and crafted a life that shines as a beacon of hope. Kitty Crenshaw and Cathy Snapp beautifully capture Betty's amazing life story. Now, in the twilight of her years, Betty courageously offers her life story to you in total vulnerability. She walks beside you, encouraging you to follow a balanced path to physical, mental, and spiritual wellness. As Betty says, "It is well to remember that Jesus was not primarily a teacher of information or morals. He was a teacher of a way that leads to internal transformation and a new heart brought about by a surrendered life deeply centered in God."
