What do a high tech, workaholic man addicted to pornography and
alcohol, a talented woman who loses her "voice" and struggles with
intimacy in marriage, a man who is unable to be sexually faithful
to his wife, and, a ten year old depressed boy have in common? Each
of them is in desperate need of healing from wounds of the
past.
But, just what is the nature of the wound?
Author Saundra Taulbee explains through actual case examples and
vignettes from her own life that we are all in need of healing from
wounds that begin in childhood, but, if undealt with, manifest in
dysfunctions in family relationships, in marriage, in friendship,
in work/career, in the way we see ourselves, and, in the way we
relate to God.
A quick self-assessment quiz: How many of us know how to find
real peace within? Are you at peace with family, and actually love
them and like to be around them - especially during the holidays?
How many of us experience real relationship with friends where you
can be yourself and be accepted? How many of us harbor bitterness
and hold grudges against a loved one for past hurts? Are you
married but still alone, unable to break through walls of silence
or anger? Do you know what are your life-passions; yet, you allow
them to go unfulfilled? Why is that? How many of us are really
using our God-given gifts and talents to reach out to other people
in need, to help them be different?
An honest response of "that's me," to any of the above questions
suggests you have a wound in need of healing that goes deep within
your soul, blocking you from the life that awaits you.
So, why read, You Can't Heal a Wound by Saying It's Not There?
Because it walks us through common issues of life that show us
repeating negative patterns revealing how we fail to live
authentically, how we live double-lives, how we focus on
self-satisfaction instead of serving others, how we rely on

excesses that take our minds off things that matter, how we
struggle with addictions of all kinds that we keep secret. Told
through the stories of nine real people, You Can't Heal a Wound...

really matters in the long run, and, begin to figure out how to use
