This is the book one never wants to write, and yet it came knocking to Me Ra's heart.
She spent ten years working on Beauty Restored. It is an inspirational account of her journey to find healing and wholeness. Her passion to never give up on this project was so that others would know they are not alone.
According to the U.S. Department of Justice, somewhere in America, a woman is raped every 2 minutes, often by someone she knows.
About 16,000 women each year have abortions as a result of rape or incest.
The date-rape drug is in the news almost daily.
One of every 5 college-age women has been forced to have sexual intercourse. Rape is a national epidemic, and the Church is not immune.
Tragically, there is a crying need for this book in our stores. Me Ra Koh creatively, sensitively addresses the aftermath of rape-shame, anger, depression, forgiveness and recovery-with great courage.
Taking readers on a personal journey through her own rape experience, Me Ra probes the spiritual issues that arise when going through a terrible loss, and she writes beautifully about her own discoveries of hope and healing.
Whether you have experienced this type of crime or you have simply swam in the deep wells of your own grief and pain, you will find a friend in Me Ra as she unveils her heart.
