There Is a Me

At six years old, Amy was torn from everything familiar and thrust into a system marked by instability, abuse, and neglect. Her childhood unfolded through foster care, sexual trauma, and addiction, leaving her wounded and angry long before she reached adulthood. At seventeen, her life fractured again when her mother was murdered. Grief-stricken and untethered, Amy fled to the streets of Nashville, where survival quickly gave way to exploitation and crack addiction. Over the next three years, she endured violence, repeated arrests, and profound isolation. In the darkest moments of her life, on the very streets that nearly destroyed her, Amy encountered God.
