gwynneth sunshine

A boarding school for girls was radically transformed when one of the pupils encountered Jesus and began to share her newfound faith. Gwynneth was one of the first to follow in devoting her life to Christ, and the revival that followed had far-reaching effects.

Gwynneth completed her eduaction, not with great academic qualifications, but with a calling from heaven to reach out to the homeless and rejected with the love of Jesus. She invested herself in spending time with, and praying for, the marginalised, but her efforts soon led to burnout, followed by a rapid download spiral emotionally and spiritually. She began to encounter Satanic activity, depression and sickness, along with abuse and rejection from those around her. At times she made poor choices. Gradually she found herself drawn into the world of drug addiction, with poverty, suffering and violence.

God seemed distant and Gwynneth found herself trapped beyond her ability to escape. But she could not forget her childhood encounter with Jesus. In the midst of great darkness, she clung on to the hope of her destiny.

"A well-written and honest account of Gwynneth’s early life and encounter with God. Her story progresses to share her struggle with depression and addiction, as a believer. I have been moved and encouraged by her story – a testimony to the fact that God can bring us through the worst trials."

"After a young girl’s encounter with Jesus her life is dramatically changed. Then a series of events pull her into the very lifestyle which she is trying to help rescue people from. A riveting read that exposes the real dangers and evil at work in an addict’s world."

"Gwynneth has a story to tell. It’s real and it’s relevant. From devilish lows to heavenly highs, Gwynneth’s life is one of radical conversion, seeking to serve the Lord, burnout and abuse. Her story is a parable of grace – persistent, unrelenting grace – that brings her through the most difficult of trials and sets her feet back on the solid Rock."
