Inspirational

What an awesome book. "If He Doesn't Deliver" is a must read for every woman, man, or child in an abusive relationship or anyone that knows anyone in an abusive relationship. This book will captivate the reader. I read it in one sitting and was amazed not only of the horrific violence the author experienced, but the persecution by fellow Christians and church leaders. However, the author does not leave the reader at the point of abuse and rejection from the church, which is what makes the book so amazing. The author takes the reader through the steps of recovery (i.e., looking for acceptance, wanting to be left alone, the emotional and physical scars, etc.) and deals with the whole gamut of emotions from that of rejection to final acceptance by a Godly Pastor. "If He Doesn't Deliver" does not just tell the story of the Author (Marilyn Joyce). It asks and answers poignant questions that the author obviously had to answer on her road to recovery. These questions will empower anyone currently going through abuse. I take my hat off to the author - Marilyn Joyce - for having the guts to openly and honestly share her story, in order that more women could be freed from such relationships, especially those occurring in the church.

Hope Is Not Lost!

I thought this book was outstanding in its content. What an encouragement to women everywhere who have suffered abuse to know that there is a way out and there is hope for the future. It's " you can rise above your circumstances" is a strong message to people in general, that you do not have to be a victim, but an overcomer. This book has already started to be used in Abuse Shelters all over the United States and I forsee it being translated in other languages and offered abroad.

Inspirational!

Marilyn's story is certain to inspire anyone who is going through a difficult time...not just abused women. Her testimony will open your eyes to the terror that many women and children go through. Even though she went through one of the most horrifying things I can imagine, she pressed on with her eyes focused on God and emerged victorious! I highly recommend this book!

If He Doesn't Deliver

This book had a huge impact on my life. I had no concept of how many women are abused by men that are leaders in the community. Marilyn tells of how she overcome the situtation of her abusive marriage, and found the courage and the strength to make difficult decisions regarding her marriage to a minister. As Marilyn shares her story, you see how much the Lord had His hand in her life. You will not want to put the book down until you have finished reading it. The book is a must for anyone who has been in an abusive situation or knows someone in an abusive situation. "If He Doesn't Deliver is a wonderful story of triumph in adversity and will truely minister to those who read it.
