A Soul Protected: Cult Survival and Recovery from Ptsd Valerie Martin Msed

In 1979, Valerie Martin, her husband and their two young children joined what they thought was a non-denominational Christian Ministry. Having ?forsaken all? to follow Christ, they embarked on a twenty-two month waking nightmare. The physical, mental and emotional abuse endured by the Martins culminated in the loss of custody of their children and all their personal assets. Subsequently Valerie was diagnosed with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. A Soul Protected details these events as well as the arduous task of recovery and restoration that spanned three decades. Ms Martin?s book provides resources and practices that can assist individuals who have endured any kind of soul shattering experience and who suffer from PTSD.
