Description

From a young age, Christina was taught to be compliant, to never make a scene, to be the good little Christian girl. An early sexual assault was brushed under the rug, and life continued around her. This led Christina to a very low sense of self-esteem and a desperate need for approval. Not Your Burden, Sis! contains Christina's raw testimony regarding past sexual assaults, sexual harassment, and the occasional hookups she participated in, prompted by her need for validation.

She provides these vivid personal accounts, not for shock value or revenge, but to help other women realize they are not alone and that what happened to them is not their fault. Sexual assault or immaturity cannot change a person's intrinsic value or worth.

In the second half of the book, Christina shares with her readers the three steps she found that helped her heal from her sexual trauma and find wholeness, including a nontraditional discussion of who Jesus is and the perhaps unexpected ways he was an advocate for women.

Whether you've given in too easily when it comes to sex or you've been the victim of assault or sexual harassmentor all of the abovethis book is for you. The stories of your past do not go away, but the hurt, guilt, and shame you've carried need not be your burden anymore.
