McFarland gives an exclusive glimpse inside her process of healing and

Dr. Shaunte’ McFarland
Instead of giving you a formal third person description
of myself, I’m going to be transparent. The same way I present myself in
ministry, my book, my blog, the way I am in real life. I’m passionate,
enlightening and formalities may dilute the true message of what I want to
deliver. I grew up a small town girl who involuntarily learned a lot of things
the hard way. My childhood was stolen at the tender age of four and after years
of abuse I decided to liberate myself through accomplishments. My trophies and
awards shined brightly but my soul grew darker as I started to adopt and carry
out self-inflicted abuse. Fearing a return to my impoverished beginnings I
became a serial perfectionist. If things weren’t flawless, I would perpetually
beat myself up until I fixed it. As I was bringing down the hammer on myself
for the umpteenth time, God grabbed my hand and I looked up to behold the Son
of Glory. He showed me a new way. I learned that acceptance, forgiveness and
grace is more effective in change than punishment. I would continue to fall,
but instead of the whip, I used something a lot fiercer: the double-edged Word
of God.
