Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Award Finalist ECPA Top Shelf
Award Winner Taylor Schumann never thought she'd be a victim of gun
violence. But one spring day a man with a shotgun walked into her
workplace and opened fire on her. While she survived, she was left
with permanent wounds, both visible and invisible. In When Thoughts
and Prayers Aren't Enough, Taylor invites us to see what it means
to be a survivor after the news vehicles drive away and the media
moves on. Healing is slow and complicated. As she suffered through
surgeries, grueling rehabilitation, and counseling to repair the
physical injuries and emotional trauma, she came face to face with
the deep and lasting impact of gun violence. As she began grappling
with the realities, Taylor experienced another painful truth:
Christians have largely been absent from this issue. Gun violence
undercuts God's vision of abundant life and community-and the
silence of the church rings loudly in the ears of survivors and
families of victims. Taylor weaves her own incredible story of
survival and recovery into a larger conversation about gun violence
in our country. With compassion and honesty, she encourages readers
to reconsider their own engagement with the issue and to join her
in envisioning a more hopeful, safer future for our nation. Move
beyond thoughts and prayers and enter into grace-filled dialogue
and action.
