Publisher's Synopsis
From her impressive work in counseling and advocacy, Anne-Marie Verkuijlen gives voice to the ongoing struggles of modern refugees. I'm Not Afraid Anymore powerfully addresses the paradox and power of hope in the face of almost unspeakable loss, fear, and pain. Verkuijlen has chosen to see refugees as people in need of compassion. With impressive honesty and all due discretion, she shares their hearts as she opens her own. Without resorting to blame, excuses, or the illusion of easy solutions, Verkuijlen shares what God has let her do. She walked from fear into listening, caring, and seeking to understand. Her experiences proved life-changing, and in I'm Not Afraid Anymore, Verkuijlen offers that same blessing to her readers.
