In 1994, around the time of her twenty-first birthday, author Anna Karson, lays in a hospital bed fighting for her life. She has nothing but time to contemplate how she got to this point. In Triggering Fear, Karson narrates her story, offering a real-life look at domestic assault that often takes place behind closed doors. She tells how she met her husband in high school, her marriage at a young age, and the horrific abuse she suffered at the hands of a narcissist. Karson knows her ex-husband is to blame for her near-death experience, and she explains how she also knows the role God played in saving her, not just from this crisis, but during all of the other nights of terror. Offering inspiration to those surviving abuse day to day, Triggering Fear shares one woman's life tragedies and mistakes that helped her turn triggers of fear into triggers of faith-the reason she trusts and depends on God.
