Having read the book the Purpose Driven Life, I can tell you it was written for people like Ashley. Professed Christians still struggling with sin in their lives, will find much encouragement in this book. I know I did.
OK granted, she at the time of the event was still taking meth, and had a broken relationship with her parents, but she was in the process of turning her life around, and from every thing I have seen and read she is doing just that.
It’s the Christophobes who are using this spread their anti-Christian message.
Now what I really feel... this whole story is so pefectly woven together, they will all make LOTS of money and sell LOTS of books. If Ashley doesn't WORK a 12 step program (as she has said in interviews the last 2 nights in a row, she hasn't done because she was tied up with the book), she will be back on the meth.
I thought Christians were supposed to be loving and forgiving. You'd never know it by this thread.
