Synopsis:
A thrilling personal story you don't want to miss! After years of addiction, prostitution, homelessness, and unimaginable loss, Delivered shares a raw and candid document of how one woman's life was radically changed when she experienced the ultimate delivery--hers and that of an unexpected daughter. The greatness of God is so miraculously displayed that you'll be inspired to believe that if God can change Janet's life, He can change anyone, maybe even yours.
In addition to being a good read, Delivered offers advice for addicts and family members dealing with loved ones in self-destructive lifestyles.
About the Authors:
In her search for love and acceptance, Janet Gillispie traveled a long, hard road through addiction, prostitution, homelessness, racial prejudice, violent rages, degrading activities, betrayal, and regret. Delivering a fourth child that she did not want, she had a radical encounter with God. In that instance, she was radically transformed and has never looked back. Quick to admit that she is still flawed, she and her daughter are examples of God's redeeming power, His ultimate love, and His unexplainable peace. Her 30 years of deceit and guilt had her constantly moving from job to job; however, the new Janet was recently recognized by her employer as "Outstanding Employee of the Year." Quick to admit she is not a saint, all who know her can see the remarkable difference in her life and the sense of joy and peace that she has.
Sammie Jo Barstow wrote the feature story about Janet Gillispie's life for Missions Mosiac magazine and since then has been passionate about telling Janet's story. The author of numerous articles for various Christian publications distributed by LifeWay and the Woman's Missionary Union, an auxiliary to the Southern Baptist Convention, she has been writing for more than 20 years. She has two daughters and four grandchildren.
