It’s Here! My New Book Courage: Reflection and Liberation for Hurting Soul is Now Available!
Sometimes, the problem in Christian marriages is that one person is encouraged to have a “team mindset” while the other is allowed to carry along, unconfronted about their self-centeredness.
Sometimes, the problem is that one partner absorbs all the responsibilities of relating while the other “enjoys” the benefits.
The gap between what happens to us in relationships and how we are taught to respond is why I wrote Courage: Reflections and Liberation for Hurting Soul book, which goes on sale today!
I write these words to those who have been told to take their place in the valley of desolation; those who thought they were free but still carry the burden of male superiority and classism on their shoulders; those hurt by wolves dressed in sheep’s clothing; those walking through life with a broken, disjointed soul. And those who love them. You deserve more.
I am thrilled about this book (the smallest one I have ever published!) because it offers women language to tend to their hurt; it reminds us we deserve dignity and respect and that our agency and autonomy are God-given and worth protecting.

Some of the poems and reflections may be familiar to those who follow me on Facebook, while others are new. (The ones previously shared on Facebook have been updated.)

What readers are saying:
“Ngina has captured the depths of a woman bound in cords of abuse and manipulative interpretation of the Word of God. COURAGE has put into words the unheard cry and unseen tears of bleeding souls. It will validate, embrace, and set you on a path of true healing through the untainted love of Jesus.” Kate M.
