Throwing Pearls to Swine

Some lessons are learned too early. Some truths are given too freely. And some pearls are offered to those who will never know their worth.

In Throwing Pearls to Swine, the author shares a deeply personal Christian memoir shaped by childhood loss, trauma, silence, and survival. Beginning with the violent loss of her mother, she recounts growing up amid grief, instability, abuse, racism, and misplaced trust—learning far too young how to navigate a broken world without the protection every child deserves.

Raised by strong but imperfect women of faith, the author learns resilience through observation, endurance, and quiet faith. Woven throughout her story are lessons she has learned the hard way. This book explores discernment through lived experience: learning when to speak, when to observe in silence, when to trust, and when to walk away.

Written with honesty, vulnerability, and even moments of quick-witted humor, Throwing Pearls to Swine speaks to readers who have wrestled with faith during and after trauma, and learning wisdom the hard way. This isn't a story of instant healing. It is a story of boundaries and walls formed by pain. It is a testimony of what happens when you experience God's presence in dark places, and when pearls are reclaimed through His grace.
