Journey of Love is a book greatly needed in the field of healing with DID/SRA. It is written in down-to-earth common sense language which could take some of the mystery and foolishness out of the field and help people to know how to minister appropriately.
From the Foreword by John Loren Sandford, Co-founder of Elijah House, Inc., Post Falls, Idaho
About the Author:
Penny Elder's dissatisfaction with her pain and dysfunction led her to attend Christian healing seminars, schools, and private counseling. As her healing progressed, she realized God had a greater plan. God turned the ashes of her childhood into beauty through the gift of faith. Out of the ashes came the passion to bring hope and courage to the broken hearted.
Penny currently teaches and prays with the people God brings into her life. She and her husband serve on the board of Elijah House. Her faith continues to mature. She continues to face some issues just as the Lord calls each of His children to walk in greater degrees of wholeness.
