E198 - Kelly Glenn - What a Woman - My Story for God's Glory
Book: What A Woman: My Story for God’s Glory
You do not have to be fixed to be faithful or perfect to be perfected.
Resting on a bed swing on a large wrap-around porch with a ceiling fan and a cold glass of lemonade is a welcome reprieve on a hot summer day. This has never been Kelley Glenn's desire. It is tantamount to a movie fantasy and requires too much daydreaming in a world where she fends off physical abuse and sexual assault. Mars and Pluto are probably closer than the faraway places she hides to stay out of harm's way. Kelley escapes to these mental hideaways while the ones who are supposed to love and protect her, violate her. With a hole in her soul, she jumps out of the childhood frying pan, right into the fire when she marries a charmer.
Many wonder why abused intimate partners do not leave or report the abuse. In her memoir, What a Woman: My Story for God's Glory, Ms. Glenn invites readers to be a fly on the wall and witness what abused partners face. Kelley's journey to believe there is a realm of possibility greater than the only ones she has had since birth takes courage. There are times when she is too broken to see past the moment, or look in a mirror and see anything good. Her gaze changes direction as she looks to the one in whom she has confidence.
