A Sudden Fall From Grace is the true story of the years of abuse my family suffered from the church that my husband had founded and pastored for ten years. Although some names and minor details were changed for obvious reasons, this story relates how a stress-related burnout compounded by near-deadly psychotropic drugs, administered by an inept, yet, well-meaning psychiatrist, helped to fuel the plots of the church leaders to throw their broken pastor out into the streets. Our story chronicles the hell my children and I went through as we watched the unstoppable disintegration of this man we loved so much as he abandoned all and threw his life into the abyss. An equally searing pain in our lives came from the church elders who relentlessly plotted to destroy my family with their Machiavellian designs. This sometimes tortuous existence went on for four years until my family finally became free from the icy death clutches of the Snow Queen as well as the vindictive, and maliciously backbiting gossips at the church. At last we were free from both sources of evil.
