Living on the West Coast, I experienced a series of devastating losses. I lost my dream job through no fault of mine, and soon after, I lost my home and my car. I was 2,000 miles from home and I hit rock bottom. Months later, I saved enough money to buy an old car. I lived in that car for six months. In my emptiness, I spent a lot time in prayer which led me to surrender myself to Jesus Christ. In that moment, my life began to change. 

Though the journey was incredibly challenging, God's grace and mercy provided me with the peace, comfort, protection, and courage I needed to move forward. I became a Born-Again Christian and was able to transform my brokenness into something beautiful—my GLASS COLLAGE.

Couldn’t put it down - read it in one sitting! It’s amazing to see Eva‘s journey through all her struggles, and how she continued to depend and trust in the Lord’s plan for her life. A very inspiring book. I look forward to many more!     ~ Vickie


A poignant tale of a woman's attempt to survive and thrive while struggling with the church's leadership. Her faith guides her through this quandary.     ~ D. Middleton

It was interesting to read the authors viewpoint and learn that the Catholic Church is not always a welcoming place. I found myself cheering her on as she overcame hurdle after hurdle. Her story demonstrates that with perseverance and tenacity you can prevail.    ~ Chris

 

Interesting read. One person’s journey in her attempt to navigate her way    through the life of being a  a loyal Catholic. Throughout this journey she becomes unsure of the Catholic Doctrine and the wloyalay she was treated by certain priests that she had served in numerous parishes. Now a born-again Christian, she continues to do God's work each day.    ~ Tony G.
