The Zippered Heart

By Marilyn Meberg

We all get whiplashed and sometimes broadsided by the "dark" side of our nature, which produces thoughts and behaviors that cause us to feel ashamed. Many of us deny that part of ourselves, and kick it off somewhere in the shadowy recesses of the heart, where we hope it will stay put, not cause us any trouble, and hopefully not be noticed. In the Zippered heart, Marilyn Meberg does a gentle exploration of those secrets and issues which, if denied, can rob us of the abundant life we are promised in Christ.
