Pushing Through - Bleakley A.N.

Imagine escaping from a toxic parental family situation into the arms of a cultish church that idolizes marriage and family (at least on paper), expecting many children to follow. Obediently, you marry, only to find that your husband?s life is dominated by the overwhelming demands of the church, leaving you with the lion?s share of raising your five children. You find the situation unendurable and feel trapped. In this frank and revealing narrative, the author graphically portrays the despair of that position and the gradual release when first rejecting Mormonism, then receiving confirmation that her husband has Asperger syndrome, and finally finding freedom together within an orthodox Christian faith.
