Hannah: Drugs, Despair, and the Dogged Grace of God


Add your own review!

Overview

Hannah is the true story of a woman who grew up in a dysfunctional family and overcame significant learning disabilities, drug addiction, and relationship tragedies to finally discover the power of Jesus Christ and her worth and purpose as a child of God. She found that religious ritual did not answer the yearning of her heart, and relationships were not an answer either. Against all odds she obtained a university degree in Chinese and thought she had found meaning in her teaching service for others. But robbed of this by severe ill health, she discovered true meaning comes from knowing God and being available for him to use to share the good news of Jesus with others.

"""A gripping story of God's transforming love! Having the privilege of journeying some of the way with Hannah, I was amazed to discover the rest of the story. This is a must-read for anyone thinking their past pre-determines their future!"" --Greg Timmins, pastor, Gisborne Seventh-day Adventist Church ""A real-life story that gives an honest picture of God's patience. I would recommend Hannah to anyone who wants to understand the hidden battles that people experience. It's a modern Bible story of God's pursuit for people outside and inside a church environment."" --William Iererua, lead pastor, Papatoetoe Community SDA Church ""Hannah's journey from learning and social disadvantage through substance abuse, bad relationships, and ill health, to peace with God is an encouraging story. I also appreciated the explanations of the various religious beliefs and practices."" --Brenda Parkinson, retired doctor"
