From the opening pages of Scripture, no one who has encountered a holy God has come away unchanged. Adam, Abraham, Hagar, Moses, and many, many others realized that God is not distant, but a God who draws near to us in all our circumstances.
Each of the ENCOUNTERS books will tell the story of an individual who believes he or she knows and understands God, but then is forced to reevaluate and reconnect with God.

This is the story of Donna, a young adult and eventually new wife and mother, but she is dealing with the impact of childhood sexual abuse by her father’s brother. She has a wonderful, supportive husband, Phil, but struggles to grasp her worth or value to others and to God after such a betrayal.
