No More Silence Surviving Her, Finding Him

Surviving Her, Finding Him is the raw, redemptive story of one boy's journey through unimaginable trauma into unshakable faith. Born into chaos, neglected and abused by the very woman who gave him life, J.C. Thornton was a ward of the state by age twelve and haunted by fear, anger, and shame. But through the pain, God was present-even when unnoticed. This memoir chronicles how a life marked by abandonment, violence, and silence was transformed by divine rescue and truth. From the terror of a crack-addicted mother to the healing power of forgiveness, Thornton invites readers into his path of survival, self-discovery, and spiritual awakening. With courage and vulnerability, he reveals how God turned brokenness into purpose and a painful past into a powerful calling. For anyone who has suffered silently, questioned their worth, or struggled to heal-this book is proof that no trauma is too deep for the love of Christ to reach, restore, and redeem.
