Rise Up and Walk!: Healing the Wounds that Break you and Restoring the Identity that was Stolen (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798250527545)

What happens when the wounds you've carried your whole life finally demand to be healed? Author Vanessa Wine knows what it is to survive. Uprooted from Honduras at six years old, she navigated a childhood wounded by loss, hidden secrets, emotional abandonment, and the devastation of never quite feeling like she belonged. She learned early to build walls, bottle emotions, and keep moving. But mere survival was never the life God intended.

Rise Up and Walk: Healing the Wounds that Break You and Restoring the Identity that Was Stolen is a raw, honest, and personal journey through the healing process that God makes available to every heart. With vulnerability and grace, Vanessa walks readers through the layers of shame, unforgiveness, and broken identity that kept her from truly living and points us to the transforming work of the Holy Spirit that finally brought her life into full color.

Through her own story and the truth of Scripture, Vanessa explores how childhood wounds shape who we become as adults, the role of forgiveness in true healing, what it means to be fully known and loved by a Heavenly Father who never left your sidd, and how connection, community, and kingdom identity unlock the abundant life God promises.

This is not a book about having it all together. It's a book about finally letting God into the places you've kept hidden. You were not created to merely survive. You were made to rise.
