What comes of those of us who have been victimized by abuse? Recluse living? Bouts with depression and overarching fear? Deeply rooted bitterness and anger toward God and others? A controlling demeanor or an out-of-control lifestyle? How does it affect our relationship with God? How does it affect our relationships with others?

 

For many of us, the impact continues long after the abuse. The Ashes of Tamar symbolizes the residue of a painful past encompassing shame, guilt, depression, rejection, fear, and forgiveness due to abuse. The accumulation of these ashes is detrimental to women who desire to live an abundant life—fearlessly.

This study is designed for women who find themselves in a desolate place, buried deeply in the ashes of their yesterday. Is that you? If so, regardless of how you arrived in your desolate place, whether through domestic violence or a series of unfortunate events, The Ashes of Tamar will reveal the Ember of Hope that flickers brilliantly down your path toward restoration.
