What if our grace was reckless? What if we received and extended the kind of grace that didn't make sense? The kind of grace that was out of the ordinary? The kind of grace that changed the world. One that changed lives. In Wreckless Grace, I share my journey to forgiveness by encouraging you to travel with me as I tell my story of enduring abuse, broken relationships, and my walk with God. Filled with moments of laughter, tears, and heartache – Wreckless Grace is an emotional and redemptive journey that will encourage and inspire you to step into the grace you are called to live in. Wreckless Grace will lead you to living a life of perseverance, compassionate love, ridiculous grace, and boldness - so that you can live out your purpose.
I was incited to read this book because I briefly knew Taylor before she was a Rambo and although I didn’t get to know her well -- I knew she was a remarkable person. She taught and coached middle school girls, a tough crowd, but she had great rapport with them and her leaving our school was a great loss. I don’t know very many people who are real, live authors, so when I read she wrote a book I had to read it.
What I found refreshing: Taylor is smart, funny, personable and really, really pretty. She’s the kind of person I would look at and judge as smart, athletic, pretty, outgoing, she has a cute husband, a precious baby girl -- the package. But what I learned in her book is that really she's just like me. We’ve both got baggage! It’s not the same baggage but it weighs us down nonetheless. The book made me realize that unforgiveness is a bag we often carry without even realizing it. If honestly there is no one in your life you need to forgive, you might need to look in the mirror.
Life is hard, we are hard on ourselves, but life in Christ is freeing. No matter who you are or what your baggage he beacons you to come!
What I take away:
No matter how “good” or “together” a person seems, we are just puzzles that have been carefully put together, some puzzles are further along than others.
