This was an amazing book! I will be reading and re- reading it for some time. I want to be dangerously surrendered! and I wouldnt mind being gloriously ruined either. What a book. Kay traces her transformation from housewife to international HIV/AIDS advocate. Moved by a news article about AIDS, Warren made a life-changing visit to Africa in 2003. She tells the stories of the world's great tragedies, HIV/AIDS, the genocides in Rwanda and Cambodia, sex slavery, orphaned children and deep poverty. I cried through many pages. Kay challenges us, the readers to engage with devastating situations and surrender themselves to loving others—particularly those who may be considered outcasts—in the name of Christ. To stop changing the channel. She describes being gloriously ruined by her close knowledge of these tragic situations, having previously been unaware or simply too busy raising a family to realize what was happening in the world.
