Women of Intrinsic ValueWomen of Intrinsic Value

About the book

Abuse, betrayal, shame, violence, neglect, and spiritual oppression can leave a woman wondering if she is damaged beyond repair. The wounds may be hidden, but their effects are real: fear, self-contempt, silence, anger, numbness, unforgiveness, and the exhausting effort to keep going while carrying a story no one else can see.

In Women of Intrinsic Value, you are invited into a courageous journey from oppression toward comfort, truth, and restoration.

• recognize the lies oppression tells
• understand the effects of abuse
• confront false shame
• experience joyful repentance
• practice biblical forgiveness without minimizing harm
• take small, faithful steps toward healing

Through Scripture, reflection, teaching, and guided exercises, you will be invited to face your past without being defined by it—and to discover again the value God placed in you from the beginning.

You have intrinsic value.You are not alone.Healing is possible in Jesus Christ.

If you or someone you love has a history of trauma (including childhood/adolescent/or young adult sexual abuse or sexual trauma) this is a book you will want to read! Mo and I led small therapy groups together with women for many years. This is a book of hope and healing. Mo’s extensive work with this subject captures the deep grief and invites the reader to start or keep doing the courageous work of being on the healing journey with love and hope. Her writing style reflects her deep understanding of the many difficult emotions and consequences associated with trauma (including sexual abuse) and lovingly invites the reader to hope on the road of healing.

To me, it is inspired by God for women. It challenges you to examine the voices of your childhood and growing up years to the present day. You may cry and laugh, but it will lovingly change you and convince you of your value and purpose!

In the time we have known Mo, she has blessed us with her wisdom and insight. Her passion to help women in seemingly hopeless situations to find healing is ongoing. She has taught them what we all need to remember—that each of us possesses intrinsic value.

I was blessed by Mo’s writing… her words are comforting, encouraging, honest, hopeful, powerful and loving; rooted deeply in God’s word, it is a healing balm for those walking through grief…

No one wanted to counsel me because my story was too dark and too oppressive. Mo taught me that no one and nothing can take away my God-given intrinsic value. The shadows and the memories tried to claim control, but in the face of the Holy Spirit’s truth, they could not.
