Something About Me and My Book:
Just released--"Sins of the Abused" - Young Marco, blissfully living with his grandparents, is whisked away to a new school when his parents re-enter his life. Befriended by Father McCool, Marco is groomed with methodical precision, exclusive indulgences, and thrilling sports outings. Slowly, he is introduced to alcohol and porn, molested, and programmed for life with sexual perversions.
Years later, Marco self-medicates in a subconscious attempt to suppress the lurid memories of dark secrets hidden behind
closed rectory doors and to control an insatiable appetite for morally depraved behavior. He struggles to prove to himself there is a virtuous self hiding deep inside. When he finds a
patient and understanding therapist, the reconstruction of his twisted life begins. But by now the rippling effect of abuse has spread throughout his dysfunctional family.
Marco crawls, wobbles and falls, gets back up, and continues on his painful yet heroic journey to separate himself from the shameful creature he'd become ... all the while juggling single parenthood and his career along with his internal battles.

    Thanks for your question, Helen. While we have experience in counseling those who have been abused and betrayed by those in positions of trust and authority (including those abused sexually), we have not yet counseled one who has ben hurt so terribly in that specific situation. I will be here to help you in any way that I can if you know someone who needs support after such a traumatic event.

    Spiritual abuse is also rampant. Does that fall in you experience?

    Blessings,
    Sharon
  • Pastor Sharon Billington

    Wow! I'm sorry your friend was hurt in this way. George and I attended an abusive fellowship for years, so we have lived with what we write, speak and counsel about. Sometimes the abuse comes through the spiritual leader and sometimes through the felloship itself. Either way, the pain is indescribable. I pray that your book encourages many on their emotional healing paths from spiritual abuse.

    Blessings,
    Pastor Sharon Billington

    Hi Helen, good to get to know you. Holidays are getting near and I'm so busy with the last book I'm working on called, There IS life After Fifty which is a fun type book unlike some of the ones I've done in the past.

    Just have to get the cover done but when my computer crashed, so did the program I used to do it with, so may have to find somene to help me put it together...anyway, great to be on your friend list....shirley
  • shirley dicks

    yes it's a fun book to write and almost have it finished. Most of the others are on crime and punishment, Vietnam, Victims and a few others, but this one like my women and motorcycles are fun ones to write ....will probably do the one for men like this one for women although I'm not sure I can find enough men over fifty to do it....finding the ladies was easy enough but I'm not sure I'll have such good luck with the men out there......but never know....
