This book is filled with a number of actual traumatizing experiences in Alfred and Joyce’s life. We, for the last thirty-five years, have had individual group and marriage counseling. The result of all of our trauma has leaked into our marriage. We find ourselves still processing the pain from the sins committed against us. Just because we have forgiven those who have hurt us does not mean we have forgotten what happened to us. Our minds are like computers—it takes our thoughts and experiences and stores them in our subconsciousness. Recently we were blessed to be able to go over the Rwanda to participate in a Rwanda Mission Conference on teaching husbands and wives how to “become one.” The trip to Africa helped us realize how fortunate we are to be citizens of the United States of America, no matter how unperfect the United States of America is. Hallelujah!
