Meet Laurie Suzanne Scott. She is both an evangelical Christian and transgender. Raised in a devoutly Christian home, she endured the unbelievably difficult and complicated odyssey of finding her identity as a woman...without losing her identity in Christ. A journey she barely survived. In God Doesn't Make Mistakes: Confessions of a Transgender Christian, Laurie tells her story of growing up playing a role as unnatural to her as the body with which she was born.

Sexual identity needs to be lovingly addressed by the church. This compelling personal story sheds light on the issue. Well done. Interesting.

Story5 out of 5 stars 123
Evie and Elliot are scrawny, filthy and scared when they turn up on foster carer Maggie Hartley's doorstep. Aged just two and three years old, this brother and sister have hardly set foot outside their own home. They have been prisoners, locked in a world of abuse, violence and neglect. Maggie soon realises that Evie and Elliot are lacking the basic life skills we all take for granted, and the outside world terrifies them. Gradually unlocking the truth of their heartbreaking upbringing, Maggie tells their shocking true story.

HUMOR? If Mockery of one's faith, is a new sport.

The narrator is engaging. Hardly would I call it a comedy. Story is offensive on so many levels.

Humor, faith and heartache capture this memoir
Reviewed: 10-18-18
Life is not perfect, but there are lessons to be learned from our mistakes. Cody does not mask or embellish the error of our ways, rather shares from the depths of experience as an urbanite greenhorn who was never exposed to horses. The vast truths revealed in these experiences are rich and deep. Some are unable to grasp life's realities as opportunities to grow, while others bloom from someone else's trials and victories.
