À propos de cet audio
Mercy Roller knows her name is a lie: there has never been any mercy in her life. Raised by a twisted and abusive father who called himself the Pastor, she was abandoned by the church community that should have stood together to protect her from his evil. Her mother, consumed by her own fear and hate, won't stand her ground to save Mercy either.
The Pastor has robbed Mercy of innocence and love, a husband, and her child. Not a single person seems capable of standing up to the Pastor's unrestrained evil. So Mercy takes matters into her own hands.
Her heart was hardened to love long before she took on the role of judge, jury, and executioner of the Pastor. She just didn't realize the retribution she thought would save her, might turn her into the very thing she hated most.
Sent away by her angry and grieving mother, Mercy's path is unclear until she meets a young preacher headed to counsel a pregnant couple. Sure that her calling is to protect the family, Mercy is drawn into a different life on the other side of the mountain where she discovers righteousness has nothing evil about it—and that there might be room for her own stained and shattered soul to find shelter . . . and even love.

Narrator: Amber Dekkers - NTM and fantastic!
A tough but immersive story and I highly recommend it. I was caught up in the story from the start and was completely absorbed into it. The narration by Amber Dekkers is fantastic!
Mercy has seen and experienced unimaginable abuse, both physical and sexual. I physically shuddered and winced many times, yet there are many abused people across the world today. Her “pastor” father was sheer evil. Even her Mom could be very cold and heartless at times.
Mercy lost so much time and again and grew to be hard and very bitter, yet she cared for others. At times it is extremely difficult to like her; yet, inexplicably you can’t help but love her and want to see her yield to God and know his mercy. Her name, Mercy, plays a significant role in this book.
The growth arc for Mercy is realistic. There is no sudden “Ahhhhh haaaaaaa!” moment. The Lord keeps working on her and she eventually discovers that He has always been there. While it isn’t an easy read, the story is so important.
A tough but amazing read!
