The world promotes the lie that the wounded have little to offer. Individuals with Disabilities, children in the US foster care system, or individuals (or families) navigating loss are often sidelined by a culture that finds little room for these individuals or their contributions.

The world promotes the lie that the wounded have little to offer. Individuals with Disabilities, children in the US foster care system, or individuals (or families) navigating loss are often sidelined by a culture that finds little room for these individuals or their contributions. Summer Joy has experienced loss, abuse, and the marginalization that is far too often associated with carrying a label of disability. Yet, she proclaims that God is a Healer. God is a redeemer. Her life, now at fifteen, is one that proclaims that God is a God of healing, redemption, and purpose. This book is an attempt to provide insight into some lessons God has taught through Summer's life of faith. This book is for those who make their home alongside those the world so often neglects. This is a book about hope. This is a book about what God can, and will, do. As Paul reminds us: "There's more to come: We continue to shout our praise even when we're hemmed in with troubles, because we know how troubles can develop passionate patience in us, and how that patience, in turn, forges the tempered steel of virtue, keeping us alert for whatever God will do next. In alert expectancy such as this, we're never left feeling shortchanged. Quite the contrary-we can't round up enough containers to hold everything God generously pours into our lives through the Holy Spirit!" (Romans 5:3-5, MSG)
