Have you ever experienced a \u201cstripping away\u201d? While many of us expect that giving our lives over to God will result in smoother sailing, this week\u2019s Publishing Secrets guest, Latoya Washington, found the opposite to be true. In her own words, \u201call hell broke loose\u201d as soon as she re-dedicated her life to the Lord. From losing everything in a flood to an assault that sent her into a spiral of self-blame, Latoya went through a period of nonstop loss and trauma. But her story didn\u2019t end there \u2013 Latoya poured out her heart in poetry, and now she uses her writing to offer hope to others who have suffered like she did. Listen and be inspired by Latoya\u2019s story of hope, healing, and trusting God when all seems lost.
