If Shelley Only Knew is a nonfiction companion to the novels Shelley's Story and Shelley's Petals, weaving together personal stories, spiritual insights, and biblical wisdom for survivors of childhood sexual abuse, ministry leaders, and their supportive communities. With transparency and compassion, the authors guide survivors on a journey to overcome underlying wounds and find freedom. Morris blends real-life stories with applicable truth to move victims toward being survivors and overcomers. Sherilyn shares her personal healing journey from childhood abuse to thriving as an overcomer. The book addresses the issues raised in Shelley's Story and Shelley's Petals, providing practical answers and solutions to ongoing, and often hidden, pain. Readers are invited to consider and apply words of wisdom in three parts: Part One: Aligning Our Hearts and Minds with Truth, lays the foundation every survivor desperately needs-a restored vision of God; Part Two: Overcoming Lies with Truth, courageously names the boulders that bury so many lives-broken trust, guilt, shame, unforgiveness, anger, and fear, addressing each issue by replacing lies with truth; Part Three: Moving Forward, reminds us that healing is not the finish line-it is the starting point. Ongoing involvement with a life-giving community is essential, leading to restoration and freedom.
