The Modern Day Wilderness Experience

About the Book

The Modern Day Wilderness Experience by Dr. Yolanda L. Webster chronicles the author’s painful ordeals of rejection from the system during her career with the Board of Education, linking it to biblical accounts of wilderness experiences. Anyone who has been the victim of rejection, verbal abuse or harassment can identify with her struggles to be accepted as she speaks straight from the heart. Her honesty tugs at the reader’s emotions. She relates how traumatic experiences can be used for good and how a Christian can actually grow through hurtful encounters with others.
