Debra Moerke: Miraculous Grace in the Face of the Unthinkable
Manage episode 411539149 series 3530690
Have you ever thought you could not forgive? We are told to forgive for many reasons in the Bible, but sometimes it seems like an impossible ask. We can feel justified in our anger and hold on to the resentment, but we won’t experience the freedom God has for us. Debra Moerke knows first-hand how difficult it can be to forgive the unthinkable and the rewards on the other side of obedience. She shares her powerful story behind the book Murder, Motherhood and Miraculous Grace.
Debra Moerke was raised on the beaches of California, but moved to the Rockies where she and her husband fostered over 140 foster children during 18 years. Debra also headed up a crisis center for teens, served in jail and prison ministry and worked as an officer in an Arizona prison. As a Christian author and speaker Debra is driven by a desire to help free people from the crushing weight of unforgiveness. Her true story, recounted in her book "Murder, Motherhood, and Miraculous Grace," leaves most asking, "How did she do that?"
