hearts of your preachers' kids. The book leads the reader toward
self-examination and self-correction, love and respect of oneself.
The author makes a noteworhty disclaimer, 'I do not have a license
in counseling, a degree in psychology or theology. I am not an
elder or deacon in any church, nor do I hold office as a board
member on any religious organization. I am not a minister, pastor
or evangelist. I am neither an acclaimed author nor an authority of
any kind. Forgive me if I have misquoted scripture or taken verses
out of context. I hope the Bible verses I have quoted throughout
this booklet would not seem preachy; but then again, I am a
preacher's daughter-smile. I trust that, these scriptures will grab
at your hearts and soothe your soul-wounds. I hope they will
provide a new perspective and they would be as you have never heard
them or thought of them before'. The author writes from a from a
unique perspective that of a peracher's kid. 'I am the voice of a
group that is easily misunderstood and even shunned. We are the
group that, 'should know better'. Just being born into the
subculture of 'preachers' kids' we are automatically judged by all,
(the righteous and the unrighteous alike). We are 'expected to...'
by default, 'be good, be upright, make no mistakes, be all things
to all men all of the time. We are to be mature in all judgments
from the moment of birth, and on and on it goes. Few can comprehend
our journey toward our Father on a road less traveled'. This
journey will be enlightening and comforting to all who read it. It
will bring hope to those who are confused and lost. The book
although empathetic to all parties, makes all accountable for their
behaviors towards others and to the Heavenly Father. It is with
great love and sensitivity that the author leads the reaader to
finding relationship with Jesus. Just for a moment the reader can
walk in the shoes of peachers' kids with understanding and empathy.
It brings much-needed direction and guidance. The author attempts
to bridge the gap between 'all of you' and 'preachers' kids. It
also attempts to bridge the disonnect between preachers' kids and
Jesus. This work is raw and honest as well as a relection of a lost
generation who need to know the true power of redemption and the
priceless gift of grace and love.
