Barb Jenkins's New Book, "Burying Jane Doe: A Journey of Courage and Strength" is a Powerful and Encouraging Book Written to Help Survivors of Rape and Sexual Assault.
Lolo, MT, February 5, 2018 (Newswire.com) - Barb Jenkins, a professional office manager and survivor, has completed her new book, “Burying Jane Doe: A Journey of Courage and Strength”: a shining beacon of hope and strength for women who feel forgotten and broken due to sexual assault.
No stranger to adversity, Barb has deep faith convictions to carry her through. She says, “I want nothing more than to encourage and guide others along a path of healing, hope, and restoration in the Lord. Being a survivor of a brutal rape that took place in a public park and in broad daylight, I have had to fight hard through the mass of emotional, spiritual, physical, and legal pain of healing in a world where such things are barely talked about, and survivors are labeled guilty and less than. I am no longer a victim, no longer known as Jane Doe. I am a survivor and a warrior for those who have suffered the same injustice as I did at the hands of a rapist. In Him (The Lord), I am complete and more than a conqueror. I know that He makes beauty out of ashes and I am proud to be used as His mouthpiece.”
Published by Covenant Books of Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, Barb Jenkins’s new book was written to encourage survivors of rape and sexual assault, especially women, since they make up the largest of the population of those who have been affected by this. This is a hard subject but affects so many.
Barb wrote the book from her own personal experience with rape and identity recovery, because in the midst of that storm, she could not find anything that could be read to give much-needed hope, comfort, and strength for that road she was forced to walk. There is a gaping hole on this subject. This book will take the reader through from beginning, during, and after the storm, and will illuminate the presence of an Almighty God, who is in the midst of every stage of the journey.
This book will give voice to the heart cry of every woman, man, and child who has been assaulted in this way. It takes the reader on the ride from the depths of despair and back to peaceful waters again, reassuring them of the love and peace and presence of the Father. At the same time, it is educating the public on rape culture, PTSD, trauma, secondary trauma, the justice system, and the right and wrong ways people handle this subject and those affected by it. This is a book that is geared for survivors and their loved ones after sexual assault and rape. It is the author’s hope that the reader will find peace, restoration, and the knowledge that they are loved and beautiful and a treasure to the Father in Heaven, living forward!
Readers can purchase “Burying Jane Doe: A Journey of Courage and Strength” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon or Barnes and Noble.
