Find beauty and hope for the messiness of family life Are you exhausted by the fairy-tale idea that following Jesus will mean our families won’t suffer? That a parenting formula can guarantee our children will turn out okay? That our families will be immune from being broken because we love God? In The Beauty of Broken, Elisa Morgan, one of today’s most respected female Christian leaders, shares for the first time her very personal story of brokenness — from her family of origin to her family of creation, represented by her husband and two grown children. Over the years, Elisa’s family struggled privately with issues many parents must face, including: alcoholism and drug addiction • infertility and adoption • teen pregnancy and abortion • divorce, homosexuality, and death Each story layers onto the next to reveal the brokenness that comes into our lives without invitation.
