My name was sandwiched in between Jared “Jazzhands” Handler and “Toxic” Tabitha Sue Stevens. Oh, and the girl who can’t even speak English, Katarina Tarasov. Yup, we’re one big hairy family.

Book excerpt: Join Lonicia as she shares her journey Letting My Walls Down: A Prodigal Daughter’s Journey From Pregnancy to Purity and God’s Grace. Letting down the walls of her heart and removing her mask in full vulnerability, Lonicia shares how engaging in “innocent fun” during childhood eventually led her down a path of self-destruction, bondage, helplessness, and a bleeding soul she felt too unworthy to welcome God to heal. Choices resulting in unwed motherhood served as the breaking point that caused Lonicia to cry out to Jesus and accept the gift of God’s grace. Like the Parable of the Prodigal Son, a young woman who chose to walk away from her heavenly Father’s embrace learned the hard way the gift of accepting God’s grace. In her journey from pregnancy to purity, Lonicia defines purity as peace with God, not personal perfection. This movement promotes the fact that our past does not define us. It is never too late for a fresh start. Most importantly, God’s love for us all is unconditional. In God’s eyes, our value does not depreciate, no matter our mistakes. Thank you, Jesus, for grace, mercy, and peace!
