My Battlefield - Large Print by Joyce Meyer (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

"I feel it's necessary to disclose certain details of my story so readers can begin to grasp how completely God can change people, how deeply He can reach into a damaged soul and restore it, and how thoroughly He can heal a broken heart. He can take a life shattered in every way and make it whole and strong. He can take people who have lived in misery and fill them with joy and peace."
- From the Introduction
Joyce Meyer was born into poverty in the rural Midwest of the 1940's. She spent her childhood in a home deformed by her father's relentless rage and the horrific sexual abuse she suffered at his hands.

Yet it was from these dismal beginnings that she emerged as a pioneering figure, becoming the first modern woman to lead a global Christian ministry, investing her life in helping others, raising a loving family, and creating a legacy of hope and healing that will live on well beyond the span of her extraordinary life. Her story is a living testament to God's ability to transform and redeem even the most damaged among us.

My Battlefield tells this story with the same unflinching honesty, determined faith, and surprising humor that has characterized Joyce's teaching over the last five decades. For every heart-breaking story we read about a childhood characterized by darkness and shame, about years of bitterness and anger as she struggled to learn how to trust in the goodness of God and others, we also read amazing stories of God's unique hand on her life. We watch a life that was desecrated and destroyed be redeemed, healed, and called to do work that has brought light to millions of other lives.

Joyce invites you to experience both the pain and the miracle of her story in My Battlefield.
"My sole motivation for writing this book is to convey to people who have been hurt, abused, damaged, or broken in some way that no matter how horrendous the situation was or how long it lasted, God can redeem it. If He can transform my life as completely as He has, He can transform yours completely too."
