Under the Staircase: Hearing God’s Voice in the Darkness is a spiritually stirring memoir of one woman’s journey to find her self-worth despite the obstacles put in her path by her parents, her abusive husband of thirteen years and herself. Her mother’s depression and her father’s long absences in her childhood left her feeling disconnected and abandoned. In a life-altering moment at age six, Darla found herself in complete despair. In the darkness, she heard the voice of her heavenly Father promising He would never leave her—a promise that became the unshakeable cornerstone of her faith when the rest of the world crumbled around her. Holding on to the promise didn’t make her life easy, but it did provide her hope when she needed it most and a determined faith, as she grappled with the challenges of adulthood. Darla’s story is a compelling tale of human vulnerability, the power of forgiveness and a reminder of the light that beams at the edge of our darkness, giving us hope.
