Dawn Compton and Amanda Schrader Share Their Testimony of Experiencing the Restoring Love of God through Their Journey as Nurses and Christ-Followers
2018-06-20
In Dawn Compton and Amanda Schrader’s new book, Nursing
the Wounds: Two Nurses’ Extraordinary Story of Faith and Overcoming Sexual
Abuse, ($15.49, paperback,
9781545629918; $7.99, e-book, 9781545629925) readers will discover the authors’ powerful true story of surviving childhood
sexual abuse. After first meeting at a backyard Bible club in rural Mississippi
in 1999, these two survivors serendipitously crossed paths again as nurses with
a God-given purpose, together recounting their stories of healing in Jesus
Christ.
“We
believe our testimony reaches beyond the countless survivors of sexual abuse; everyone
has been through something difficult in their life,” states the authors. “This
is a reflection of Romans 8:28 and how God
truly can use those difficult times to change your life!” With Nursing
the Wounds, Compton and Schrader aim to encourage those affected by
abuse or other adversities to begin the journey to healing and wholeness. “People
all around the world are beginning to break their silence from the hold that
sexual abuse has had on them. Many have stayed silent for years and are just
now beginning to process their experiences. We've been there; ours is a message
of hope!”
Dawn Compton
holds a master's degree in nursing and has worked as a registered nurse for
over fifteen years. Amanda Schrader is a licensed practical nurse and is
currently working toward becoming a registered nurse. Both are wives, mothers,
advocates, and Christ-followers, and they are currently working on their second
book, Jumping Ship, which will be a
devotional book.
