Description

Into the Wilderness: A Journey of Faith is the spiritually inspiring and surreal true story of a young girl from West Virginia who, at the age of twelve, suddenly finds herself deposited into the harshest environment imaginable--the streets and public schools of South Central, Los Angeles. There, she struggles to survive not only the violence, crime, and destruction around her, but also the resulting trauma, depression, sadness, and sense of hopelessness. Her sudden friendship with a Jewish family at the age of fourteen leads to a desire to know God for herself and a much needed encounter with Jesus at the age of sixteen. Five years later, a God-directed mission into the wilderness of Alaska quickly builds her faith in a powerful way, and her relationship with God is strengthened as she learns the meaning of spiritual warfare. For people who need answers to the questions "Is God Real? Does God care about me? Do I have a purpose?" This book is for them.
