Moonshine & Sweet Tarts: A Reflection for Christians Living in Trauma-Recovery and the People Who Love Them

Book blurb...


When trauma strikes, what does the Church say—and more importantly, what does it do? Moonshine & Sweet Tarts is a raw, unfiltered look at how the Christian Church responds to acute trauma. Through the candid recovery story of Les and Eli C., this powerful book confronts the well-meaning but damaging clichés often offered in moments of crisis. Abuse. Devastating illness. Childhood trauma. Sudden loss. Too often, theology is used to explain pain instead of entering it. With honesty, humor, and solid Scriptural grounding, Les and Eli challenge believers to rethink how we receive suffering within our faith communities. This isn’t an attack on the Church—it’s a call to become better. If you’ve ever felt dismissed in your pain, or want to help others heal with compassion and truth, this book is for you.
