Hidden Heavy Weights

Book Cover & Preview Text
Having a gun to your head while your screaming children, six and under, witness, is unreal, like something you see in the movies. It was someone who was supposed to love me holding the gun. I do not remember the exact words that were said to me. I remember the cries of my babies, and the intense fear that I felt. I remember shaking uncontrollably. I remember turning off the lights after he left so that my children could not see my distress. I remember pushing the incident back and still being determined to be married. I remember God calling me His Annointed being the reason I was still living. I did not feel worthy. I had messed up so much in my life, but God still called me His. He protected me and would not allow harm to come to me.

About the Book
Blair Mitchell was almost thirty years old when she realized she still carried baggage from her past.
Her self-esteem had suffered—and her spiritual growth had come to a halt because of all the hurt, shame, and sin from earlier days.
In this book, she reveals the lessons she’s learned confronting her past. She also urges others suffering to confront their own pain to promote healing.
As the mother of seven children, she recalls the challenges she faced becoming pregnant for the first time at age sixteen. It was a lonely and sad pregnancy, but her mom was with her every step of the way.
Things got worse: As a domestic abuse survivor, she would find herself one night with a knife in her hand, thinking about killing her sleeping husband.
Join the author as she shares how God helped her conquer demons from the past and move forward without heavy burdens
