This was a great documentary.

A story of child abuse.

The aftermath of sexual abuse usually exposes itself once the victim is in a safe relationship with their spouse, as an adult. The next thing you know, everything falls apart. Thank goodness they had each other and God.

I felt close to the families journey of self discovery. The marital confusion on Tony's quick descent to rock bottom. The strain on their marriage. The impact on their family and community. All of these gripping emotions were clearly portrayed in the film.

I am proud of this family for spreading their message. It was a truly profound step in their recovery.

Prayer Honors God. God Honors Prayer.
