Maybe you've lied too much, used too long, and hurt too many people. Maybe you believe God forgives other women, but not someone like you.
Kristen Alderman believed that, too. Sitting in a jail cell after hearing a judge say "No bond," she was sure she would never be more than her worst mistakes. Then God met her there. Today, nearly ten years sober, she walks back into prisons carrying the hope she once couldn't imagine.
Not Too Far Gone is a daily devotional for women in recovery from alcohol, drugs, or any addiction they're fighting. It doesn't tiptoe around cravings, relapse, shame, trauma, or broken trust, because you can't heal what you won't name. And it never stops pointing to the God who runs toward His daughters while they are still a long way off.
Across six sections (Honesty, Surrender, Shame and Grace, Repair, Staying Clean, and New Life), each day includes:
• A Scripture reading and a devotional written in an honest, accessible voice
• A reflection question with space to write
• A short prayer
• A "For Today" step: one small, doable action
• The book works with any Christ-centered recovery program and alongside sponsors, counselors, treatment programs, and jail and prison ministries.
You are not too far gone. You're on your way home.
