Review
“Life, In Spite of Me is a remarkable story of life beyond despair and hope that triumphs over tragedy.” —Louie Giglio, pastor, Passion City Church/The Passion Movement“Suicide is a liar and a thief. It promises peace to those who are escaping but delivers unimaginable pain and rejection to those left behind. Kristen Jane Anderson’s riveting story unmasks the thief and gives hope a face.” —Dr. Dennis Rainey, president, FamilyLife Ministries“When I first met Kristen, I was overwhelmed with her smile, and then I saw her wheelchair. It was a defining moment for me. I had not heard her story or why she’d ended up at Moody. But it was her smile—and it is still her smile—that dismantles me. Kristen has something. It is something otherworldly. She had every reason to die, but now she has every reason to live. I hope you’ll read her story, see her smile, and know why she lives.” —Michael Easley, former president, Moody Bible Institute

"If only I could have figured out how to deal with all the pain inside before it came to this. I was never trying to hurt anyone, yet I had. Especially myself."I had seen a video of Oprah Winfrey interviewing Kristen; it was powerful. I remember thinking how could this girl be smiling? When Multnomah offered a review copy of this book, I quickly signed up to help spread the word about the testimony of Christ moving in and through this young woman who found hope and peace in a hopelessly agonizing situation.I couldn't stop reading this book from the very first page. It's written in first person, so I felt as if I were sitting down with Kristen as she told me her story.Kristen states she was brought up in a good home and life was happy until things happened that started to rocked her world--the unexpected death of her grandmother, the suicide of a very close friend and another unexpected trauma at a party. Kristen starts to feel helpless and wonders why she couldn't get past these feelings like everyone else. At seventeen she starts to look at life through new eyes and says this, "unlike Cinderella, I had no fairy godmother who could make everything beautiful and perfect with one zing of a magic wand! But as long as I could push the problems out of my mind, keep them from distracting me, I was fine!"Doctors and paramedics who were first on the scene told Kristin she shouldn't have survived. Kristin knew it was by the Grace of God she lived and He brought the people necessary to her situation to help her live. She wondered, why? What was the purpose?She came to learn that God works all things out in life for His glory and our good. Even things meant to destroy us. He uses it all. This is an inspiring courageous story you'll never forget. It will touch your heart, give you hope, encouragement and remind you life is a gift to be cherished.Nora St. LaurentACFW Book Club Coordinator
[Note: I received this book for free from WaterBrook Multnomah Publishing Group. This did not affect my review in any way.]With Life, In Spite of Me, Kristen Anderson has shown herself to be an honest and sympathetic writer about the struggle of teen depression [1], full of hope and with a powerful story that will be greatly relatable to many readers. Her story is organized in a very effective way: beginning with her abortive suicide attempt at the age of 17, then detailing what led to her suicide attempt, and then looking at her long spiritual, physical, emotional, and mental recovery, to the point where she was no longer dependent on others but was able to help others overcome their own struggles with depression. Her final chapters including how she developed her own ministry in dealing with this problem, are richly rewarding and demonstrate how disaster and evil can be turned into godly service to others.As a fellow author who has struggled deeply against depression and even suicidal feelings, and who has devoted a great deal of my own life to helping and serving others and sharing my own faith in God and in Jesus Christ, I was very keen to look at parallels between my own life and that of the author. As I have read quite a few books that deal with the same general topics of people struggling from the aftermath of abuse, I have noticed some alarming and troubling patterns. For one, there appears to be a very close connection between the sort of people who are driven to write memoirs and autobiographies to share their life stories with others and a stuggle against depression resulting in large part from rape and child abuse.The author herself, who has a ministry called Reaching Out (which can be found at [...]), has precisely the sort of personality makeup that one would expect to be an effective counselor as well as someone who struggles with depression. She has a family history of depression (as do I). She is a sensitive soul with a deep desire to make the world a better place who from childhood deeply suffered from the evil and darkness that she saw around her (the same is true for me). Traumatic experiences (in her case, the death of a close friend followed closely by acquaintance rape, and then her suicide attempt) led to fierce nightmares from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and the attempt to kill her emotions through drinking. Later on the attempts of doctors to medicate away her emotions left her feeling emotionally numb and hindered her abilities to develop proper emotional control. In looking at her own life and struggle, I see a great deal of similarities to my own, and no doubt many people will find such similarities.Included in the book, which will be welcome to many readers, are short notes at the end of a few chapters where the author includes some of the things she wished she had known when she was struggling with depression and suicidal feelings. Overall, the tone of this book is hopeful and appreciative, but also open and honest and straightforward, and full of gentle encouragement for the readers, as the book assumes that its reading audience is made up of teens and young people in general struggling with depression. Also included in the book is an afterword from Kristen's mom, who details her own feelings about the growth and struggles of the author.In reading this book I was struck by the fact that there is such a great need for more awareness and consideration among the community of believers as a whole towards those young people (and older ones) whose lives have been greatly marred by abuse and trauma. The large number of books I have seen recently and the large number of people I know (myself included) who have been driven to speak out about our own experiences is a demonstration of the immense brokenness that is found in our world. The problem of evil is far too great for any of us to eradicate it, especially in our own efforts, but a recognition of the scale of the problem, and of its widespread nature in our own society (much less around the world) gives us an understanding of the need of this world for people who are willing and able to bind up the wounds of God's broken children, and to help them receive the wholeness that God offers, and to in turn help others as they have been helped. Hopefully this book will contribute to that noble and difficult effort.[1] [...]
