In this inspiring true story, the author recounts her experience with religious fanaticism and abuse. Sharon, who was raised in a strict Christian family that believed women weren't to have an independent place in the world, was met with one obstacle after another as she fought to free herself and her two small children from the clutches of abuse at the hand of a mentally ill partner, all before she was even 25.

Set against the backdrop of the 2020 COVID-19 lockdown, she faced homelessness, followed by a time of living in extreme poverty and fear for her physical safety, as she worked to gain stability independently. She experienced many cases of stigma and discrimination even while living in a rural community in the United States. Through hard work and many tears, she began to pull herself up from the darkness, although she was met with constant setbacks and blocks to her path along the way. Amidst the pain, she learned that true religion is the language of love, forgiveness, and healing oneself.
