Story
"In this life, I have lost. I lost my husband and best friend. My children lost their father. But Stephen didn't lose his life. He found it." Early one morning, just down the street from the local mosque, gunshots shattered the silence. A young American lay in a pool of blood, murdered by al-Qaeda extremists. When God called Emily and Stephen Foreman to bring the gospel to a Muslim nation where Christianity was illegal, they knew they were being called to a life of sacrifice. "We died before we came here" was their common refrain.

Story
Forgiveness will unleash a power in your life that is underrated and often ignored. It is underrated mainly because it is underused. We fail to capture the power of forgiveness because we are afraid of it, because we have grown comfortable in our familiar wounds, or because we are sinfully stubborn. But the power is there waiting for us. This little book, and the 11 real life stories in it, will help you capture that power. Because everybody needs to forgive somebody.

Story
The Awakening Heart is a work of love, but at times it took all that I had to write it. I am a private person, so sharing more about myself, especially after being in the public spotlight, was difficult and challenging. Yet, I "knew" that my continuing journey here is not about me. I am to teach others not to fear, but to have hope in God. My commitment to God is sometimes a struggle, however, I can't quit, I won't quit! The Awakening Heart can build your trust and personal relationship with God. And in doing so, it will enhance your life through your own "awakening".

In September 2007, Elissa Wall, the star witness against polygamous sect leader Warren Jeffs, gave captivating testimony of how Jeffs forced her to marry her first cousin at age 14. This harrowing account proved to be the most compelling evidence against Jeffs, showing the harsh realities of this closed community and the lengths to which Jeffs went in order to control the sect's women. Now, in this courageous memoir, Wall tells the incredible story of how she emerged from the confines of the Fundamentalist Church of Latter Day Saints and helped bring one of America's most notorious criminals to justice.

Story
"In this life, I have lost. I lost my husband and best friend. My children lost their father. But Stephen didn't lose his life. He found it." Early one morning, just down the street from the local mosque, gunshots shattered the silence. A young American lay in a pool of blood, murdered by al-Qaeda extremists. When God called Emily and Stephen Foreman to bring the gospel to a Muslim nation where Christianity was illegal, they knew they were being called to a life of sacrifice. "We died before we came here" was their common refrain.

Story
For 30 years, Lynn Wilder, once a tenured faculty member at Brigham Young University, and her family lived in, loved, and promoted the Mormon Church. Then, their son Micah, serving his Mormon mission in Florida, had a revelation: God knew him personally. God loved him. And the Mormon Church did not offer the true gospel. As Lynn tells her story of abandoning the deception of Mormonism to receive God's grace, she gives a rare look into Mormon culture, what it means to grow up Mormon, and why the contrasts between Mormonism and Christianity make all the difference in the world.

Webster's body looked to Omalu like the body of a much older man, and the circumstances of his behavior prior to his death were clouded in mystery. But when Omalu cut into Webster's brain, it appeared to be normal. Something didn't add up.

Gripping story
Linda's story really pulls back the curtain to reveal the many jaw dropping and painful moments that she has had to endure from people and an institution that is known quite differently from the outside. It also reveals God's love, provision, guidance and protection during the most difficult times of her life. And I enjoyed the narration, it really brought the story to life and causes you feel the heartfelt issues of the moment. Good job!

Sobering!
What made the experience of listening to Adventures in Forgiveness the most enjoyable?
Various quotes from other authors that interact with the story lines. Also appreciated Linda's desire to share how the Lord met her in the darkness of her journey. Though most of her friends apparently deserted her, her God never did.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Adventures in Forgiveness?
The testimony of Dr. Lorraine Day near the end of the book.
What about Joanna May Riley’s performance did you like?
Joanna has a vibrant reading style and invests herself emotionally in the material.
Any additional comments?
It brings to light an epidemic in ministries of all kinds. Linda's experience may be a "poster child" on a road littered with similar stories. It's a travesty to Christianity and it's potential in a world that increasingly rejects the Bible and anyone who teaches from it.

Amazing story !!
For every abused woman, and for every truth teller that can't be bought off. For every believer who relies on the faithfulness of God and trusts in the Lord through trials. This is positive reinforcement.. but it is a cry for help and justice and for continued prayer to survive this ordeal!! God Bless Her!!

Absolutely Incredible!!
This book really pulls you in. The torment that Linda went through is so horrendous. She has so much faith in the Lord, and He has definitely protected her. I wish she gave more details of certain events but I do understand that there's a lot of personal stuff that shouldn't be discussed.
There was one downside. Chapters were out of order and some were missing so it threw off the chain of events. Overall, this is an amazing testimony.
