Courage in Defeat

Toni Collier, founder of the organization "Broken Crayons Still Color," knows all too well what it feels like to be broken—and the shame that often accompanies it. After enduring abuse, spiritual manipulation, and toxic relationships, she feared that her pain would define her forever. She eventually discovered that God’s love was not some distant, unattainable dream, but a powerful force capable of transforming her life.

In her book *Courage in the Brokenness*, Toni shares practical steps and biblical wisdom to help us identify our brokenness and embrace it in light of God’s compassion. She encourages each of us to:

Recognize the lasting impact of trauma and toxic relationships.

Surrender to a God who never intended for us to carry our pain alone.

Move past feelings of shame and regret—without numbing ourselves or remaining trapped in the past.

Understand how our own journey toward healing can contribute to the healing of others.

*Courage in the Brokenness* is an invitation to reclaim the hope and wholeness that await you within the fullness of what God desires for your life. Exchange your weakness for God’s strength, your brokenness for His healing, and your weariness for the abundant life—discovering the courage it takes to keep going, even in the midst of brokenness.
