Emily would love to share with all of our listeners, the first two chapters from her book Atlas Girl. Just click on the image to the right to download it today.
Poignant and passionate, Atlas Girl is a very personal story of a universal yearning for home and the assurance that we are known, forgiven, and beloved. Readers will find in this memoir a true description of living faith as a two-way pursuit in a world fraught with distraction. Anyone who wrestles with the brokenness we find in the world will love this emotional journey into the arms of the God who heals all wounds.
Emily Wierenga left home at age eighteen with no intention of ever returning. Broken down by organized religion, a childhood battle with anorexia, and her parents’ rigidity, she set out to find God somewhere else–anywhere else. Her travels took her across three continents in buses, cars, and planes, across mountains and over deep blue seas. What she hadn’t realized was that her faith was waiting for her the whole time–in the place she least expected it.
And if you order Atlas Girl, Emily is also offering two free ebooks. Find out the details at http://www.emilywierenga.com/
Home to me is where I can go and feel completely comfortable and happy being there.
For me, home is where I feel completely and unconditionally loved and accepted…no matter what.
Home feels like sitting on the couch with my husband and three kids piled around us.
I love how Emily is helping moms to care for their children instead of just sponsoring the kids.
Home to me is being with my husband and kiddos!
