Facing the Brokenness:

Meditations for Parents of Sexually Abused Children

FACING THE BROKENNESS provides a useful resource for responding to childhood sexual abuse. The author challenges parents, themselves in agony, to provide emotional support for these hurting children. She has drawn from her experience on a Help Line for Sexual Abuse. In a format of thirty-one days, she encourages parents through Scriptures, meditations, prayer corner symbols, examples, letters, practical suggestions, and prayers.

Ridings calls on the Christian community to minister to parents of sexually abused children. Those parents then can help set the stage for healing of their children.
