Forgiveness Unforgettable

Nikki endured a life of extreme domestic violence, poverty, and sexual abuse in Southern Alabama, as her family struggled daily to survive the rage of her alcoholic father, Colby Winslow. Marie, Nikki's mother, paved a path of unbelievable strength and faith that forged a foundation of conquering forgiveness in the midst of insurmountable pain and terror. Nikki and her six young siblings lived in complete fear each day of their lives as Colby's abuse became more intense. Growing up in this atmosphere of chaos should have caused Nikki to transform into an angry, juvenile delinquent filled with hatred and bitterness. However, the faith Marie successfully implanted into her children made the absolute difference in the person Nikki became. The most difficult circumstance of Nikki's life would ultimately place Colby right in her face as she was forced to recognize what she should do---forgive.
