Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

I knew little about her past, but more about her present, being the strong and powerful influence in my life that she is. Her autobiography, The Four R's of Emmajoy, made me laugh, cry and laugh out loud. Mary's book is a heartbreaking, hilarious true story of God's redemptive grace. Lisa D., Poughkeepsie NY A book about redemptive forgiveness that we should all read. Only God can give this kind of grace to lead others to Christ. Kathy J., Flushing NY The Four R's of Emmajoy tell of the memoirs of a child who grew up in the 1950's. She writes about her parents and their marriages to each another and then reflects on her parents' divorce and subsequent second marriages. As a young child, she witnessed the depression of her mother, the neglect and physical abuse of her brother and eventually the same plight to her other siblings. She grew up far too fast as she was forced to step-up and fill her mother's role as a care giver. At the age of seven, (and then again in her early twenty's) she dedicated her life to Jesus and developed a strong and deep prayer life. This faith bought her through neglect, hunger, physical and sexual abuse, and gave her the strength to continue to take care of her many siblings. But, through her first ten year journey of life and the destruction of it, she became filled with anger, resentment and bitterness. It took her nearly four decades to realize she needed to forgive those who wronged her. And yet again it was her faith that allowed her to bring the Gospel of Salvation to all three of her parents. Emmajoy was at the bedside at the time of all of three of her parent's death and each physical death gave way to eternal life.
