Description

When Sr. Miriam James Heidland’s life as a successful college athlete proved unfulfilling, she went searching for something deeper and ended up falling in love with Jesus. By charting her own journey toward wholeness, Heidland invites young Catholics to pursue their own relationship with Jesus.  

Although originally full of athletic ambition and goals for a career in sports news, Heidland was transformed in a very slow but deep way during her undergraduate years, moving from party girl to bride of Christ. In Loved as I Am: An Invitation to Conversion, Healing, and Freedom through Jesus, Heidland helps readers learn from her experience of seeking love in the wrong places and instead finding it in Christ. She shares her struggles—learning she was adopted, battling alcoholism, and healing from childhood sexual abuse—as signs of hope that anyone who desires to know Christ can find him and be loved intimately by him in return. By bringing readers into Heidland’s healing process, Loved as I Am provides a gentle and subtle template for finding peace and freedom in Jesus.

    Insightful book

    I read this book with my spouse and we loved it. It was very insightful and thought provoking. The end of chapter questions also helped create a structure for reflection and discussion.

    Learning that I am loved

    Sr. Miriam is a modern day saint of our times, and her deep honesty and vulnerability in sharing her healing and identity in Jesus invite even someone like me (a nobody) to step into the deep waters at my own pace. She doesn't push or pull you, but her gentle, compassionate voice is like a soothing balm for the soul. Her authentic heart make this book a lasting companion for anyone longing for greater intimacy with Jesus.
