Forgiving The Lies (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798894852249)

As the sixth of sixteen children, it should have been easy for Amanda to blend in among her family. But with siblings working desperately to be seen and a mother struggling to understand her own dark emotions, Amanda finds herself in a vicious cycle of trying to understand the abuse she is subjected to while simultaneously defining herself.

Set in the cold prairies of southern Canada in the early 1900s, the Ewert family has recently immigrated from Russia. They are alone, in a strange land, caught up in the guilt and shame brought on by the strict religious ideology of the local church.

It is here that Amanda develops an identity void of who God says she is, not just through the actions of her family, but from her own unbridled self-talk.

Join in the journey as Amanda learns to see herself as God sees her and is able to break free from the lies she told herself.
