{"product_id":"ruined-1","title":"Ruined","description":"2017 Christianity Today Book Award winner (“CT Women” category)\n“It happened on a Sunday night, even though I’d been a good girl and gone to church that morning.”\nOne brisk November evening during her senior year at a small Midwestern Christian college, two armed intruders broke into the house Ruth Everhart shared with her roommates, held all five girls hostage, and took turns raping them at gunpoint. Reeling with fear, insecurity, and guilt, Ruth believed she was ruined, both physically and in the eyes of God.\n\nIn the days and weeks that followed, Ruth struggled to come to grips with not only what happened that night but why. The same questions raced through her mind in an unrelenting loop―questions that would continue to haunt her for years to come:\n\nWhy me? Where was God? Why did God allow this to happen? What am I being punished for?\n\nTold with candor and unflinching honesty, Ruined is an extraordinary emotional and spiritual journey that begins with an unspeakable act of violence but ends with tremendous healing and profound spiritual insights about faith, forgiveness, and the will of God.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 149641392X\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.149641392X.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Everhart, Ruth\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Former library book with the usual stamps, stickers and labels.
