Not all of us--but many of us.

When Debra White Smith was 15, her mother was overtaken by mental illness. During that lonely and confused time, Debra became the victim of sexual abuse.
Yes, Christians do struggle with lifes pain.
If you ever plastered on a fake smile when you didn't feel in the least bit cheerful or said you were fine when you were dying inside, read these true examples of how humor in some of life's most difficult circumstances brings healing.
