Summary
Julie Woodley understands trauma. From physical and sexual abuse as a child, to abortion, the murder of a dear friend, brain injury, a brain tumor, and cancer, as well as two broken marriages, she has experienced more than a lifetime's worth of pain and loss. But by the grace of God, she's doing more than surviving--she's thriving! Like a wildflower thrusting itself through a broken sidewalk, God has raised Julie's joy and hope through the layers of loss and into the light of his plan for her. He has transformed her from a broken receiver of grace into a beautiful blossom who radiates the grace she has received into the lives of other hurting people. Trauma victims often feel weighed down by shame, anger, confusion, and pain. They may be so accustomed to "getting by" that having passion and joy seems impossible. In A Wildflower Thrives in Florida, they will encounter a story that will inspire them to imagine a life restored and overflowing with all the good things God intends for them
