Commendations
“This remarkable book is about true recovery of health by a deeply wronged woman, whom I met more than ten years ago. Rarely is this subject written about, and even more uncommonly in Sarah’s calm and thoughtful way.”
Dr Geoff Searle MBBS. BSc. FRCPsych (Sarah’s Pychiatrist)
“A profound and moving story – it struck me that despite such harrowing experiences the human spirit can be so resilient and triumphant.”
Dr Adrian Hutchings MBBS. (Sarah’s GP)
“So many people around the world have been abused, and often their pain is muffled by secrecy. Thankfully the woman who wrote this book has decided to expose her pain to the light of Jesus Christ. By doing so she has found total healing – and I believe her decision to share her painful secret with the world will help many other abused people find complete emotional recovery.”
J. Lee Grady – Editor, Charisma Magazin

Wow! The depth of a human soul and the damage that the enemy can cause are really shocking. But even more shockingly amazing in God’s unfathomable wisdom in how to draw someone out of the pit of dispair. While reading I’ve learned some eternal truths about our awsome God and His unfailing love for His creation. No doubt about it – He is the best doctor ever!
I’ve read it in a few hours, it was not possible to put it down.

This book demonstrates than we humans have the potential for healing all our ailments. While the Author of “Sarah” implies the healing came through “Jesus” – I contend that it came as a result of the dedication and good intention of the team and the trust that developed between them and the young woman.

This is not a ‘light read’ but it is an amazing story of how the author has recovered over a period of years from horrific abuse throughout her childhood. Clearly there were many struggles along the way but it shows that with the right support, and a strong faith in God’s power to heal and restore, that there is hope of recovery. A really inspiring book, thoroughly recommended.

Contained in this book is a wonderful testimony of what God can do in broken lives. He can do what nobody else can do, take the broken pieces of our lives and turn them into something beautiful. I thank God for Sarahs life and thank Sarah for writing this book:-)

God is patient with us and never gives up on us. I recommend it to the broken heart, many that are struggling with the past.

I loved this book. You can guess that she went through some terrible things, and she mentions some, but not in detail. The point of the book is to show the consequences of childhood abuse, and to show how to get healing. I thought it was very sensitively and intelligently written. I never went through anything like this, but it helps me to begin to relate. I would recommend it to anyone who has been through abuse, and to those who are trying to help people like this.

A most inspiring book. Sarah’s story is very moving and a wonderful testimony of Gods healing power when all looked hopeless. I recommend this book for those who want to learn more about praying for healing at a deeper level.

Amazing true story of God’s power to restore even the most broken life. Moving, revelatory, Sarah tells how God healed, restored & made whole her fractured personality. Highly recommended!

This is so engaging and easy to read that I felt like I could fly through it. It touches every one who is broken and encourage you to believe God for deeper and deeper healing and helps you receive from Him the love that you need. I recommend it to everyone who believes in Jesus.

A delicate subject dealt with from personal experience. This is a Christian perspective on coping with abuse and splintered personality.
Ann (verified owner) –
This is an amazing book. I was blessed to read how Sarah’s dysfunctional life was touched and changed by God’s great love. The steps Sarah took in her healing process were clearly explained. This book will give many struggling in despair, a real hope for a new future. God is able and this book shows how He can and will bring new life to hopeless situations

The book is excellent. Here’s to the ministry of Ellel UK (Peter and Fiona Horrobin), and to a very, very special woman, Sarah. I gained MUCH hope for the healing of very deep physical/soulish wounds and entanglements.
FREE TO BE ME (verified owner) –
Sarah’s book has taught me a lot about who God really is and how much He really can do in broken lives. The story is written very well, with honesty as well as dignity and brings all the honour to Jesus. I have been encouraged by reading it and have drawn closer to God myself because of it. Beyond any doubt it will bring much hope to every Christian who reads it, in particular those who are struggling themselves due to childhood experiences.
