A Funny Thing Happened on My Highway to Hell: Exiting Hopelessness, Trauma, and LGBTQ+

Rate this book
In A Funny Thing Happened on My Highway to Hell, pastor’s kid turned lesbian Heather O’Brien shares her raw and vulnerable story of how God rescued her from crippling mental illness and suicide and delivered her into His hope.

Heather offers no pat answers or easy step-by-step solutions. She lays out her very real struggles as she walked out healing from severe PTSD after a sexual assault while in the military, after her post at Camp Bucca, Iraq, and more.

She honestly shares her heart and journey related to her sexuality, addictions, and mental illness, pulling no punches on her journey to healing. If you or a loved one has walked down a dark road of despair so that all hope is completely lost, Heather’s story can offer you the restoration in Jesus that you need.


Trigger and content warning for mentions of suicide and sexual assaults.
