Deliver Us From Evil

Safety, Acceptance, Belonging. These words come to mind when we hear about families. Having a mother, father, and twelve siblings living in a strong Christian faith should mean plenty of love, laughter and companionship.
But what if, inexplicably, one’s parents selectively manipulated and mistreated some of the children and not the others?
How would you deal with being one of three children who constantly bore unprovoked wrath and abuse — while watching the others receive the love, affirmation and nurturing you so desperately needed and craved?
Would you ask yourself if your life was worth anything to anyone at all?
Would you feel that God had overlooked and abandoned you?
Would you despair of God for being unresponsive when you cried out for relief?
Ron Corcoran’s frank and honest memoir courageously proclaims that no matter how wretched, broken or angry we may be, we can indeed be delivered, redeemed and transformed by the love of the living, eternal God.
