QUOTE: "My needs will never exhaust God's supply."
After years of being married to an abusive pastor who confiscated her paychecks, leaving her to beg for the basics, even clothes for herself and her children, Shirley filed for divorce. She had put away some emergency money, but he managed to find and take that too.
In PART 3, we find out how Shirley rebuilt her financial stability from scratch. We discovered how she presented the situation to her children (in a positive way) and how she dealt with creditors who harassed her—and what she would do differently. She went on to buy her own home and rebuild her self-respect as a Daughter of the King
