By fourteen, she was fighting anyone who looked at her wrong and sleeping with anyone who looked at her twice. By sixteen, she was searching for answers from psychics and palm readers. By her early twenties, she was an ordained minister secretly planning her own death.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLinda Hillman was a walking contradiction. Called to ministry at age six. Preaching by fourteen. An elder in the church. And falling apart in private.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eDon't Count Me Out\u003c\/i\u003e is her raw, unflinching memoir of survival. No polished testimony. No easy answers. Just the truth about a little girl who was molested by her stepfather, who became the bully instead of the victim, who traded her body for a fleeting sense of being wanted, and who hated God for letting it all happen.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is not a book about how she got her act together. It is a book about how God found her in the wreckage - not to shame her, but to show her who she had been all along.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom the bedrooms where her innocence was stolen to the schoolyards where she became a fighter. From the church pews where she learned to perform faith to the red carpet where she finally stopped pretending. From the courtrooms where she received mercy she did not deserve to the moments where she had to learn, over and over, that God was not done with her.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTold with brutal honesty and unexpected tenderness, \u003ci\u003eDon't Count Me Out\u003c\/i\u003e is for anyone who has ever been counted out by the church, by their family, or by themselves. It is a witness that no one is too far gone. No wound is too deep. No mistake is final.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause the same God who met Linda on that red carpet is waiting for you. Not with a list of your offenses.
