    About this ebook

    BATTLE-SCARS: Broken. Depressed. Misused. Rejected.
    Those WERE some of the pains endured by the authors of "God Says I am Battle-Scar Free".

    RENEWED! JOYFUL! COMFORTED! VALUED!
    Those ARE the promises of God used to express how those same people feel today!

    In this fourth installment of the Battle-Scar Free series, 20 individuals—women and men—pour words of encouragement into the lives of the readers. Their transparent testimonies are compelling, with each word purposefully-penned to speak to the hearts, minds, and souls of others who are victims or survivors of abuse. For many contributors, their healing continues; yet they found the strength to share their painstaking processes leading up to their survival.

    These individuals overcame—and you can, too! God has kept you for such a time as this!

    No longer shall the children of God be subjected to a life He never intended. God loves us more than we could EVER love ourselves. It is His heart's desire that we be loved FULLY by others...not abused by them.

    Pearly Gates Publishing, LLC (PGP) is a Christian book publisher based out of Houston, Texas. The vision of PGP sprang to life in early January 2015 after God gave Angela Edwards (CEO) the mission to bring to the world authors whose desires encompass keeping their God-given inspiration in their literary works. Founded in February 2015, the business has continued to blossom into a sought-after publishing house for both current and up-and-coming Christian authors worldwide. PGP’s youngest authors are ages eight and ten, and the oldest is 72. Pearly Gates Publishing, LLC is a low-cost publishing option for those individuals seeking to spread their messages of empowerment, inspiration, and education. Since its inception, PGP has produced numerous Amazon Best Sellers – with two making the coveted number one spot. A variety of topics from PGP’s authors include (but are not limited to): Faith, Bullying, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, Autism, and Domestic Violence. The Battle-Scar Free Movement – an all-out effort to ERADICATE domestic violence – is a product of Angela’s past victimization. What started as a call to abuse survivors to co-author a book entitled “God Says I Am Battle-Scar Free: Testimonies of Abuse Survivors”, it has since grown into a movement of individuals who are lovingly known as Trumpeters for Change. Change begins with one: One thought – One person – One action. Change begins with YOU!
