DESCRIPTION

"WHEN I SAW THE EFFECT SHAME HAD ON MY LIFE, IT TOOK MY BREATH AWAY. IT WAS AS IF THE HOLY SPIRIT PULLED BACK A CURTAIN AND SHOWED ME A WORLD I'D BEEN LIVING IN MY WHOLE LIFE THAT WAS SO SUBTLE AND SO HIDDEN I DIDN'T KNOW IT EXISTED. YET IT PROFOUNDLY AFFECTED EVERYTHING I SAID AND DID EVERYDAY OF MY LIFE- EVEN AS A CHRISTIAN. IT WAS A WORLD THAT AFFECTS ALL OF US, EVEN IF WE'RE NOT AWARE OF IT. IT WAS THE WORLD OF SHAME."- MARIE POWERS
