Death to Life: Memoirs of Wendy Adams
Wendy AdamsPaperback 2017-03-31
Review from Hollywood Book Review:
This memoir is both testimony of one woman's liberation through the Lord and a call to all who read it to trust that, even in life's darkest moments, God is present. Ms. Adams' impassioned narrative is a testament to her unwavering faith and a reminder to those who read it that hope raises is the way out of despair.
Review from Pacific Book Review:
Adams' life is a painful and heartbreaking read. The stories turn from depressing to brutal, with tales of child neglect due to bad judgement. As Adams grow into a more mature woman, she uses the lessons from her early life and becomes a strong, willful fighter. While she doesn't let other people take advantage of her, she also keeps most people at a safe distance and lives a life of loneliness and sadness. Suddenly, all that changes when Adams attends a church service. It was as if a lightbulb turned on in her mind and her life instantly changes. She knows immediately a life in Christ is the life she was truly meant to lead. Overall, Death to Life is a tough read. Those seeking an inspirational story of surviving tough times will find a hero in Adams and will understand Christ's message throughout the story.
Publisher Description
When author Wendy Adams was forty-five years old, a visiting Christian minister laid hands on her in a church. She fell to the ground because of the power of the Holy Spirit that was upon her. Transformation occurred immediately. From an angry, aggressive, revengeful, suffering fighter, she became a healed, understanding, and compassionate warrior for the Lord. Adams discovered he'd been with her all the time.
In Death to Life, she shares her life story beginning as a little girl growing up in the Blue Mountains. She narrates how she was bewildered and frightened by her fathers' bizarre and violent behavior. She tells how she learned to overcome her fear and trauma by finding replacements that gave her peace and happiness for her sanity and control over her life. As she matured, the dislike for her father and her survival instincts became stronger than the fear of him, and she developed into an aggressive, strong-willed, independent young fighter, traits that nearly killed her.
Encouraged by the Holy Spirit to write this memoir, Adams offers her story as a message of hope to others. Wendy Adams, a Christian, is now retired.
In 2019, Death to Life won a book award in the bookexcellenceawards.com competition, becoming one of 10 finalists out of 3000 entries.
