Who was that woman sitting at the kitchen table? Where did her brother go? The answers were heart-wrenching and tragic, and defined Barbie's youth. As a wife and mother, Barbie was living the life many dreamed of. She had a dream house, a dream husband, and children whose love filled her life. Her family went to church together and prayed together. But once again, trauma, turmoil, and more secrets ripped their way through Barbie's dream life, and left their mark.In her debut memoir, Barbie in Real Life, Barbie Ann shares her story of decades of pain and loss-and how a life that could appear so perfect can also hold a darkness so deep that only God could break through. When in great pain and at death's door, can God miraculously heal? After a betrayal, when feeling great anger, can God miraculously intercede? When confronted with the depths of despair springing from loneliness and abandonment, can God restore joy? Barbie's testimony of the power of God will have every reader shouting, "Yes! He can!"Through each powerful chapter, Barbie Ann shares her story with transparency and clarity. Sometimes shocking and gritty in its truth, Barbie in Real Life is an unforgettable book that will melt your heart and minister to it at the same time.
