A Guiding Light: A Memoir (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781959719175)

When you think of a drug addict, what image comes to mind? Have you known anyone who has overcome the addiction? How did they do it, and what changed in their life? You will be inspired and shocked by G. Perl's journey from a college-educated teacher to a nearly homeless drug addict. The encouragement and hope of the story is her miraculous transformation to a thirty-year drug-free educator with a Master's in Library Science and heart to help others find the freedom and peace she discovered.

Inside this book, A Guiding Light, you will be immersed in the heartbreaking event that thrusts Perl into addiction and the severe impact on her as a single mother of a five-year-old daughter. You will learn how her faith in God and determination helped conquer the constant pull of the drugs, shame within her family, and destructive lifestyle to get clean, build a solid relationship with Christ, and find purpose in His plan for her life.

Perl's authenticity, courage, and vulnerability bring hope to people suffering from addiction. Her story is not written to focus on her but to let others know that with a small amount of faith and asking for help, you can change. Your situation is unique, and within these pages you will find you are not alone, the truth that can set you free from addiction, and key ideas to move forward with an exciting new life.
