Beauty from Ashes: One Woman's Journey from Heartbreak to Hope (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798246268407)

From the back, a tapestry is just a chaotic jumble of threads and knots. But turn it over, and you find breathtaking beauty.

Jody Seehorn Turner never planned to write a book. As a retired nurse and stay-at-home mom, she had kept her family's deepest struggles private for decades. But when friends-and then God himself-wouldn't let the idea go, she knew it was time to turn the tapestry over and reveal what God had been weaving all along.

This is the story of a marriage tested by her husband's three battles with amphetamine addiction. Of burying their oldest son after suicide. Of financial ruin and starting over in a tiny apartment after losing everything. Of wondering, in the midst of it all, if she would survive.

But this is also a story of twenty-five years of sobriety. Of a marriage more intimate and appreciative than ever before. And of discovering that when God gives us more than we can handle, it's because God never intended for us to handle it alone.

Written with raw honesty and hard-won hope, Beauty from Ashes is for anyone walking through their own valley of shadows-for those who need to know that grief doesn't have to be buried, that weakness can become strength, and that God truly can transform our deepest pain into something meaningful and beautiful.

"For when I am weak, then I am strong." -2 Corinthians 12:10
