Rescued for
Unbridled Joy
First book publication by author Cathy Wilson, Ralph's wife
Many of us are unaware of how the experiences of our past are often twisted and woven into a burden of guilt, shame, and hopelessness. Having carried these heavy burdens alone for decades, it wasn’t until Cathy was truly rescued that she could actually see the impact they had on her life and the beauty of the truth that would set her free.
Known for her gift of encouragement to family and friends, Cathy boldly shares her rescue story in the hope of it being a gift of encouragement to you.
As I read through Rescued for Unbridled Joy, I was reminded that Christ followers are often dulled into a sense that those sitting next to them in church are squeaky clean and couldn't possibly have a story of their own sin, shame, and brokenness ... This memoir is not just about her, but about you, and how you can and do have the opportunity to also be rescued for joy.

It is my pleasure to recommend Cathy’s book, Rescued for Unbridled Joy. I’m confident that many people (especially women who struggle with guilt after an abortion in their past) will be inspired to receive God’s forgiveness and healing because of Cathy’s testimony. Cathy’s story reminds the reader that although there are ups and downs in the Christian life, the Lord is faithful.

Rescued for Unbridled Joy is the perfect title for this heartfelt story of healing and hope. It is beautiful to see how God lovingly leads us while we travel with Cathy on her journey from the captivity of sin, guilt, shame and depression to freedom in Christ. As she shares her struggles, she brings the wisdom and insight she gleaned over the years and encourages hurting hearts while never failing to point to Christ and the life-transforming truths of the gospel.
