Description

Do you desire deeper freedom? Do you feel restricted by the knots of sin and shame that conceal the true beauty of your feminine heart?

Through this collection of raw and redemptive testimonies from real Catholic women, punctuated with guided reflection and contemplative prayer, Carrie Schuchts Daunt of the John Paul II Healing Center offers you an encounter with truth and healing tailored to your specific identities as daughter, sister, bride and mother. Undone ushers you through a vulnerable search for truth through essential spiritual exercises, prayer guides, and reflection material.

Sharing personal testimonies of illness, loss of faith, rejection, promiscuity, abortion, broken marriage, infertility, miscarriage, addiction, betrayal, bulimia, and depression, the fifteen women in Undone identify shame and fear as major barriers to their relationships. In their stories, they share how their shame was untangled and their identity restored. This chorus of bold women—including Lisa Brenninkmeyer, founder of Walking with Purpose; Jen Settle, managing director of the Theology of the Body Institute; Debra Herbeck, founder of Be Love Revolution; Judy Bailey, executive director of John Paul II Healing Center; and Jeannie Hannemann, founder and executive director of Elizabeth Ministry International—will encourage you to explore and undo the knots in your own life as well. Daunt shares the same prayer exercises and spiritual reflection material used at the John Paul II Healing Center’s Undone women’s conferences, including

• inner healing prayers

• spiritual exercises for identifying core wounds

• spiritual exercises for renouncing false belief systems

• reflection questions

In Undone, readers find an essential guide to distinctly feminine healing that will leave them willingly and eagerly stripping away the bondage of sin and shame allowing them to become the women God calls them to be.

“You will find yourself in one story or another or perhaps sprinkled throughout. It is your story, her story, my story, our story. It is the story of the children of God whom he continues to pursue and redeem in his love.”
From the foreword by Sr. Miriam James Heidland Catholic speaker and author of Loved As I Am

Undone is a brave book, a true work of mercy for women who long to find healing from old wounds and discover their deepest identity in Jesus. By honestly sharing their own intimate struggles as daughters, sisters, friends, wives, and mothers, Carrie Schuchts Daunt and her fellow storytellers have opened the door to new freedom for their sisters in Christ. Scars are inevitable in this life, but Undone is a bold and loving reminder that when the Son frees you, you will be free indeed.”
Colleen Carroll Campbell
Author of My Sisters the Saints

“Carrie Schuchts Daunt has wrapped a personal healing retreat in the covers of this marvelous little book. The thread of authentic testimonies woven together with opportunities for deeper reflection, healing, and wholeness will profoundly touch the lives of women searching for the glorious truth of their feminine identities.”
Christopher West
President of the Theology of the Body Institute

“In Undone, Carrie Schuchts Daunt gathers fifteen radically honest and moving stories of women who have joyfully discovered in the midst of their shame and brokenness the freedom God offers to them. Through Mary, their knotted hearts were ‘undone’ by God’s saving love in Jesus, enabling them to embrace and live out their God-given identities as daughter, sister, bride, and mother. This powerful little book not only gives voice to many women who struggle silently but also provides a hopeful way forward for those who desire deeper freedom. The prayerful guided meditations offered at the end of each chapter help women give God permission to set them free to know the truth of their feminine dignity. I highly recommend this book!”

Pastor of St. Patrick Catholic Parish in Brighton, Michigan

This book is so softly written. I can just hear a quiet, gentle voice narrating this from a heart that is open, honest and vulnerable. A heart that has been touched by the hand of Jesus and created into something beautiful.

I think a lot of people, including me, have struggled through sin and shame from that sin. This book gives great points to overcome, not let that sin define and be free from it all.

Definitely going to be suggesting this book to my friends who I think would enjoy it. I'll be reading it again too to soak in the spiritual reflections and meditation things she suggests.

Undone is a lovely guide to breaking free from the shame cycle and living a more full life through grace, peace, and love. There are many wonderful tips that help guide you on this journey and process.

Undone is just beautiful. I expected the book to be a lovely collection of women sharing their lives and their deep healing. What I found was much more. I discovered that their stories, while largely different from my own, touched on the common lies of shame that we all carry some element of in our lives. Their amazing stories of our Father's love and mercy touched my own journey more deeply as I entered into the prayers and reflections in the book.

Freedom from shame, knotted with sin, being afraid, fear and many more issues that women feel with all of our hearts and emotions. The book helps every woman to feel free from the feelings and emotions of our sins and shame. Each section titled as Daughters, sisters, brides and mothers written by women who went through certain issues and helps other women to get over the similar emotions and issues. As a reader we are helped with healing ourselves and with bible verse, prayers and reflections. I would recommend this book for any woman who needs help with healing of their hearts. I received a complimentary copy of this book from Ave Maria Press through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

Catholic women tell in their own words their feelings of guilt,shame,not being good enough,etc. The book tells how they are able to overcome these feelings of shame and sin. The stories come from their heart. We as a reader are helping with our own healing process through bible verse, prayers and reflections.
I will definitely be recommending this to my friends.
