    Coming Soon
    Shanda reaches the heart of the struggle in this conversational interview with Anina. "What was the most difficult challenge for you to overcome while healing after chilhood abuse." Anina answers with conviction and encourages Shandra's audience not to be ashamed if they no longer feel valued; instead, be encouraged to reach out for help because God created them valuable and a precious part of His creation. God is not measured by our hardships; He is far greater and his love never tires and never ceases.

Endorsements

  • "What makes this survivor account unique is the way in which Anina Swan has crafted her story to give the reader a glimpse into the rocky road that the journey towards healing from childhood trauma involves."

    —Heather Davediuk Gingrich, Ph.D., Director, Graduate Certificate of Trauma Therapy at Toccoa Falls College.

    Author of Restoring the Shattered Self (for counselors/helpers), Shattered No More (for survivors), and co-editor/contributor to Treating Trauma in Christian Counseling.

  • "She weaves three narrative points of view—one of the child victims in third person, her adult self in first person, and the predator through his letters to his wife. Without the ugly details, Swan masterfully reveals the stages of discovery, vindication, and healing."

    —Janet Holm McHenry, award-winning author of twenty-seven books, including the best-selling PrayerWalk: Becoming a Woman of Prayer, Strength, and Discipline

  • "Anina writes powerfully of her journey with God from a life of betrayal, abuse, danger, and confusion into radiant health and trust in Him.  She skillfully shares her experiences in a way which does not mitigate the details of the crimes committed against her, but rather shows how God used those very events to build her faith and bring her to healthy, Godly adulthood."

    —Arlene Hendriks, Author, Treasures out of Trauma, a guide to biblical teaching on healing from trauma. Hearts Being Healed Ministries, Board Member/Speaker. GEMS Ministries, Founder.

  • "I am wowed and moved. Alligator in the Ocean is a rare and precious gift—both powerfully written and emotionally authentic. Through the short point-of-view chapters, Anina reveals how hope emerges alongside pain, and how freedom gradually deepens through relationships and faith. This book is like a wise, kind friend walking alongside the reader’s own journey, offering both solace and direction."

    —Jan Kern, author, life coach, spiritual director, and advocate for courageous storytellers
