About this listen

The day Lacey Sturm planned to kill herself was the day her grandmother forced her to go to church, a place Lacey thought was filled with hypocrites, fakers, and simpletons. The screaming match she had with her grandmother was the reason she went to church. What she found there was the reason she is alive today.

With raw vulnerability, this hard-rock princess tells her own story of physical abuse, drug use, suicide attempts, and her ultimate salvation. She asks the hard questions so many young people are asking - Why am I here? Why am I empty? Why should I go on living? - showing us that beyond the temporary highs and the soul-crushing lows, there is a reason they exist and a purpose for their lives. She not only gives listeners a peek down the rocky path that led her to become a vocalist in a popular hardcore band, but she shows them that the same God is guiding their steps today.

I had tried reading this via ebook and it was a struggle to get through. Whilst I am a fan of Lacey Sturm, Flyleaf and their Passerby days; the insights were descriptive, bleak yet hopeful, however the religious arterial perspective was overbearing throughout.

I will continue to read other books by Sturm and will enjoy them despite the religious current, but would love to have been eased into her story without the "preachings" nature of this story.

Honest, Frank even if being preached too
