What is Molested: A Missionary Child's Journey about?
Born into a family of Baptist missionaries, young Ana's parents expected her life to be happy, faith-filled, and rife with the fruits of God's labor-but it was not to be. At a very young age, Ana was sexually molested. She grew up unlike other kids. Instead of enjoying her childhood, she grew up confused, afraid, and alone. This fear and confusion continued into her teen years and even into adulthood. The ghosts of her past would not let her go-they kept her bound and tied in turmoil.Child sexual abuse and sex trafficking are growing concerns as epidemics in culture and society. There are doctors, therapists, and psychologists who believe they have a miracle cure for those suffering the aftereffects of such torture. There are even well-intending church folk who believe they can heal the wounds of an abused child. Author Ana Bellenghi knows from personal experience that it takes more than good intentions-it takes hard work and perseverance.Ana went through all the conventional treatments including a few unconventional ones. Through all her treatments, she learned over the course of years of pain, depression, and paranoia that only God can truly heal and transform her battered soul.
