Many books are written by women about surviving child abuse. The autobiography of this Chaplain epitomizes every worst example of child abuse that carries into institutionalization, adult strip dancing, prostitution, drugs, spouse abuse, and more. The rugged events unfold as the author shares a candid story of her personal life. Dr. Rebecca Spurgeon's story is a powerfully moving view of the vile influences that captured and victimized, as well as the strong force of God that redeemed a very lost and lonely child. Dr. Spurgeon is a down-to-earth, warm, and loving woman. She shares her story in hopes of reaching others who may be trapped in a world like her former one. Members of clergy have read this story of Dr. Sturgeon's life and agree that her testimonial should be published in order to reach a facet of society that the church does not readily access."A Million Tears to Glory is one of the most provocative and moving biographies I have ever read. The story of the very candid struggles of this courageous and bold woman can have a very cognitive impact on large sectors of humanity that the church as a whole can only hope to reach. This very powerful testimonial has an explosive message to both men and women of all races, religions, and nationalities. As the author steps forward into the early years of her ministry, her greatest gift is the sacrificial sharing of this candid and often shocking story. She goes to great lengths to make the reader understand her thought processes during her life experiences, especially how her great love for God prevailed through her darkest, most vile hours in life. Eventually, obedience to God led her to the grandest glory of all - that of forgiving others, forgiving herself, and accepting divine guidance in her life in perfect obedience to her inner calling." -Dr. Gwin T.This autobiography is not for the faint hearted as the stark reality of these life events may shock some people.
