“Where is God in your story?”

LHH, fall beachA friend recently asked me, “Where is God in your story?” She asked me in a friend way, not in an accusatory way. I think it’s a good question. Other than a few quotes by Frederick Buechner, I don’t have many overt references to the spiritual world. Yet, my story is all about God. Every part of “Mothering Addiction” – the situations, the outcomes, the people, and the words to convey what they all mean – is interwoven with God and His redemptive nature in such a way that they are one in the same. I mean, only God can turn addiction inside out to reveal silver linings. I don’t want to rank any of the ways He has worked above another, but I will say that in my journey of healing, people have over and over delivered to me exactly what I needed at the time I needed it. I have no other explanation than God, and I am grateful.

“I have read, studied, analyzed much literature in our field, this is a must read, not only for families and loved ones–but, professionals as well…
‘MOTHERING ADDICTION’


Friends, Lynda Harrison Hatcher, and her family, have lived the long and arduous road of Addiction. Rather than bury this monster in the closet, this courageous mother chose a much different path. She chose to bring her story into the light. With the helplessness she experienced for years, her charge to complete this memoir has been to help as many readers as possible begin to reconcile with how to live a full and fruitful life, despite the fact that the insidious disease of Addiction lives alongside her. Please consider ordering a copy and enjoying the read, and sharing the Amazon link with others if you believe it might have a positive impact on someone else.”
