Post-Traumatic Faith (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781666777895)

E. Jill Riley is not a good victim. However, she is a triumphant survivor who has scars to prove that wounds do not have to stay open forever. An orphan who was adopted into a culture of chaos and ineffable abuse, Jill suffers from complex PTSD and dissociative identity disorder. Follow her story from Seoul, Korea, to the deserts of Nevada and on to the beautiful North Idaho panhandle. Explore her life as a pastor in both new and established churches and then life as an inpatient in a psychiatric facility. Finally, walk with her as she discovers a newly imagined, full life of faith, despite severe mental illness. As a minister and survivor Jill is uniquely positioned to be a leading voice in the intersection of mental health, faith, and the church.
