From Avoiding to Abiding: Living in the Healing

By Mary Diaz-Garcia

If you have endured sexual trauma, you may carry deep, invisible wounds that shape every part of your life. Shame, guilt, grief, broken trust, and questions about your identity or even your relationship with God can linger long after the moment has passed.

But you are not alone. And your story is not beyond healing.

In this Christ-centered book, you will encounter a personal journey of trauma and a newfound faith and freedom in the presence of Jesus. With remarkable honesty, Mary Diaz-Garcia offers biblical truths and reflections on meeting God in the midst of deep pain and beginning the process of divine restoration.

Becoming transformed doesn't mean erasing the past. It means learning to move forward with faith, freedom, and renewed strength, trusting that Jesus meets you right where you are and gently leads you toward wholeness.

You are not alone. Your voice matters. And with God, there is always hope, renewal, and the promise of a future overflowing with abundant life.
