Sinopse
The nurturing of a devoted parent, the kindness of a closest friend, and the loving heart of an often-misunderstood Father…all were the things Elijah, the greatest prophet of the Old Testament, found in his weakest moment when lying under a broom tree. Though he’d performed extraordinary miracles and offered faith-filled prayers, anxiety and depression drove him to a place where he asked God to end his life. Elijah’s story was much like our own because he was an ordinary person, just like you and me.
- Discover God’s extraordinary, sustaining love that is specifically for you.
- Find the answer to what is at the core of today’s identity issues.
- Conquer difficulty in forgiving others.
- Learn to love the way God uniquely made you, flaws and all.
Written by a board-certified pediatrician with almost 20 years of clinical experience, Under The Broom Tree explores the mental health epidemic of this generation with fearless faith, openhearted honesty, and refreshing transparency.
About the Author:
Dr. Beena Wilkins, who writes under the pen name B. E. Mathews, is a graduate of The University of Texas Medical Branch and completed her pediatric residency training at The University of California at Irvine. She is a board-certified pediatrician with almost two decades of dedication to the well-being of children and adolescents. In her debut book, Under The Broom Tree, she offers a fresh perspective regarding current mental health issues and shares her own soul-searching story about growing up in a hushed, closed-off Indian culture. She uses the life of Elijah, the greatest prophet of the Old Testament, as a powerful example of the common, fallible humanity in all of us.
Resumo da Crítica
B.E. Mathews deftly spins a wonderful and thought-provoking brief story that bridges the Old Testament with the modern day world, showing once again that the Bible and God’s teachings transcend time and societal values. Under the Broom Tree will have you re-examine your faith and everything you thought to be true with insightful and delicious recountings of a woman coming to age in a culture that misplaces its values of what true beauty are. Julia Mathew, MSN
This book is for anyone who has ever felt lost, insecure, rejected or just plain tired. B.E. Matthews is raw and engaging, honestly sharing her own challenges and experiences by impactfully using the life of Elijah as a reference tool. She reminds us that when we feel dejected, divine comfort is always available by seeking God as our first source of refuge. She shows us how much we can accomplish if we search for blessings in the midst of our greatest trials and how much we can grow if we treat our “thorns” as gifts. Whether you are on top of a mountain, or in a deep valley, this book is for you! S.P. Spengler, ESQ
This compelling parallel between the lives of the author and Elijah makes an intriguing reference for anyone experiencing the trials of life. Far more than a testimonial, Under the Broom Tree is full transparency. It cuts to the heart of the matters: insecurity, rejection, and loss. Down to earth. Written for the ordinary person. As a Christian, I personally recommend this book as a reminder that we all, like Elijah, struggle with the issues of life. As a counseling professional, I recommend this book as a reference for overcoming adversities in life. Dora B. Mays, Ph.D., Founder/CEO and Practitioner, AMaysing Services, Inc.
