When Love Goes To War: A mother's battle in prayer, a daughter's search for sexual identity, and God's relentless love (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798264514036)

A mother's desperate prayers. A daughter's painful search. A God who never lets go.

For twelve long years, Debbie watched her daughter Kristin wrestle with questions of sexuality, shame, and identity. Their once-close bond felt strained and distant. But in the middle of heartbreak, God called Debbie to fight differently-not with control, but with prayer, surrender, and unshakable hope.

Told in both mother and daughter's voices, When Love Goes to War is a faith-filled memoir about parenting through pain, persevering in prayer, and discovering God's relentless pursuit. It's a story of Christian parenting that doesn't offer easy answers but points to lasting hope.

This book is for:

• Parents navigating difficult seasons with their children
• Christians seeking encouragement in prayer and intercession
• Anyone wrestling with identity, faith, or family tensions
• Readers who need to believe again in God's power to redeem broken stories

If you've ever wondered how to love your child when you don't understand their journey-or questioned whether God can bring good out of deep pain-When Love Goes to War will remind you: you are not alone, there is hope, and God is still at work.

In When Love Goes to War, you'll discover:
