MAITLAND, FL— Lee Cross’s new book, Trauma and Triumph - Mother-Son-Incest, ($13.99, paperback, 9781498445757; $6.99, e-book, 9781498445764) discusses the very destructive yet rarely reported, mother-son-incest that he endured as a child. With the Lord's help he was able to recover from the trauma and triumph. Early on, he had developed a way of coping with the pain but the shame, anger and guilt that he experienced almost led him to take his own life. God had other plans for him. His healing from destructive thinking and behaviors began when he opened his life and heart to the Lord. He was diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and depression, and for the last 5 decades, he has learned and practiced God's way to cope with trauma. The author wants readers to seriously consider the truth that God loves them and that He wants them to invite Him into their life. Lee Cross stresses that the Lord helped him to overcome substance abuse and other crippling addictions. No matter what abuse and addictions others may be experiencing in life the Lord can help them, too.

“I want the reader to know that if they were sexually abused it was not their fault,” states the author. “. I want them to know the pain they may now experience will go away. I want them to know healing can begin now if they give their life to the Lord.”

Lee Cross received his Honorable Discharge from the United States Navy after serving 6 years, on four different ships, as a 3rd Class Boatswain mate.  In 1974 he attended Northeastern Bible College in Essex Fells, N.J., receiving a B.A. in Biblical Studies in 1979. For the next 37 years Lee pastored churches in New Jersey and Maine. In 1989 he started a ministry called “Source of Hope” in an attempt to provide counseling for adult survivors of sexual abuse.
