"Julie Lowe has long been a highly esteemed counselor, teacher, and wise guide in the care of souls for me. Her thoughtful wisdom is grounded in the truth of Christ and decades of experience not only in the counseling room but as a mother to several kids; she wrote this book out of the trenches of life!
