This book has impacted my life on so many levels. I was so bitter. After reading this book, I realized I was living a lie, a cover up of bitterness and unforgiveness. " Mended Yet Broken" has taught me a lot. It is still teaching me how to let go and embrace my healing.

What a phenomenal book! "Mended Yet Broken" takes me through the life of a woman who went through so much yet comes out victorious. It is a quick read that takes a light hearted, Godly approach to subjects that can sometimes be difficult to talk about. She gives a tried and true method of working through each difficult situation. Although my life experience is very different from the author's, I could still transfer the principles laid out in this well-written book with regard to forgiveness and the daily struggle I experiences as a model for developing my spiritual walk with Christ, and she articulates them without being at all "preachy." Thank you for an on-time word.

Michaelia writes from the heart, honestly and with conviction. Her writing grabbed me by all five senses, from the introduction and refused to let me go until the very last page. She has tackled the agonizing issues of pain and brokenness; fear and rejection; anger and resentment, then challenges us to get up from our brokenness and move toward a brighter more fulfilling future with God. This book is a must read that will resonate with any generation looking for guidance and acceptance in a challenging world.

This book is amazing! It is well written, insightful and an encouragement to anyone who has suffered the traumatic experience of abuse. Rev. Michaelia Daubon writes, "If I could start my life over, I would not change anything." This statement not only encapsulates her personal victory, but also encourages others that there is life after years of abuse and trauma.

What an amazing story authored by an amazingly anointed and appointed queen lady! "Mended Yet Broken" is a healing capsule for men and women of all walks of life, communities, and our faith-based ministries. Rev. Michaelia Daubon has an outstanding ability to capture the broken and bruised clay of her life. I echo as she so eloquently states, it's "synchronized movement." Her transparency will bring the reader into contemplation, illumination, and transformation! She epitomizes Psalm 149:4, "For the Lord takes delight in his people; he crowns the humble with victory." Of all the delicate and detailed sharing, it is evident to the reader, that one can move while hurting. Her exegetical style articulates her life and relationship with the Wounded Healer and will take "Mended Yet Broken" to many arenas. She models how to break the silence just like our Father, Lord, and Savior: forgiveness. "Father forgive them for they know not what they do." Luke 23:34. Chapter 5 is absolutely therapeutic! I was blessed, healed and restored.
