    About this ebook

    Is there really a way to go from broken to beautiful? When we find ourselves in a deep abyss of bad choices and shattered dreams, whats next? Is there a next? Or are we forever trapped in a sinkhole of despair and helplessness, believing this is the best life can ever be?

    Beauty in the Brokenness centers around the story of the woman at the well, in addition to several of Sheila Millss personal stories, to bring a message of hope and encouragement to those who have ever found themselves feeling trapped by their circumstances and abandoned with no way out. In this study, we will take a close look at the womans desperate desire to remain isolated from society, how Jesus really saw her, and how Gods truth can transform any person in any situation.

    Come discover how a closer look at her story could change your story and transform your brokenness into everlasting beauty.
