God will give life to the most withered love. Many of our hearts are deeply injured, killing all hopes for intimacy. Whether inflicted by others or our own choices, the resulting lies of shame numb love physically and harden us spiritually. But there is hope—we can feel again. Authors Marian Green and Luke Brasel reveal how, as we invite God into the most sacred parts of our stories, he rewrites our lies and reveals our genuine desires. Often when women talk about intimacy—spiritual, emotional, or sexual—one word is missing: hope. Marian tenderly, thoughtfully, and biblically pours hope on broken intimacy. —Linda Dillow, coauthor of Intimate Issues, Passion Pursuit, and Surprised by the Healer. Marian's naked honesty about her war with her own shame, body, and interior life are a generous gift. Luke guides us through Marian's storytelling (and our own) with the eyes of an artist and the skill of a surgeon. —Jan Meyers Proett, author of Listening to Love and The Allure of Hope Ideal for either group study or personal growth—discover wholehearted intimacy as God has designed for you.
