The reason I chose to write about child/adult abuse is because I look at children and know some of their secrets. I know that some have been exploited to the point of degradation and humiliation, causing them to question who they are and why they are here. Their innocence has been preyed upon, and no one really knows their fears, anxieties, or complexities except those who have been there. They still need us to care and to expose the weaponry of the enemy. This is what my book attempts to do: expose the enemy, prepare children for their ministries, and equip them to yell at the tops of their lungs when immorality walks into their bedrooms. This is a plea to offenders to question themselves and ask, "What makes me feel so powerful when I've inflicted pain upon another?" Let them ask themselves why they cannot control this desire. I ask that we as a church embrace the contents of this book with compassion, understanding, and strong convictions to push back the forces of evil that violently assault the kingdom, for who knows what abuse looks like? There is explicit language, but only to convey my deepest experiences with child/adult abuse. Marilyn D. Mack
