REDEEMED

Everyone wants the fairy tale, but fairy tales don’t come easy when the marriage is battling to overcome past shame, sin and betrayal. Shannon Deitz divulges in the early struggles of her marriage to Neal as they overcome sexual intimacy issues, abusive behaviors toward one another that bleed into their parenting and the imminent threat of an extramarital affair and divorce. Redeemed reveals the self-destructive behavior Shannon was led into because of the shame of rape and guilt of self-imposed inexcusable sin. Shannon unfolds this truth through the continuation of her journey in accepting love, intimacy, worthiness, and forgiveness through the gift of marriage and motherhood.  Redeemed portrays Shannon’s ever strengthening love story with God as she struggles to accept the gifts He has waiting for her and the courage it takes to trust when her spirit has been deeply wounded by the past.
