Gloria's Road: A Schizophrenic Woman's Perilous Path to Christ
About this Book
Gloria Lovejoy's memoir is an unabashed account of a troubled woman's life in small town Pennsylvania coping with family strife, drug abuse, alcoholism, promiscuity, and suicide attempts. Later came the paranoid delusions, voices, demonic apparitions and hallucinations that were the tell-tale signs of a diagnosed schizophrenic disorder. Many rejected her and stigmatized her as crazy. She spent years in therapy and in and out of mental institutions.
However, Gloria's Road demonstrates that the mentally ill are not without salvation, that schizophrenia is not outside of Christ's mercy and grace, and that the power of God can work despite a comprised mental state. This book offers evidence that the mentally ill have hope, and that through Christ, they can live fulfilling and fruitful lives.

"Demons attacked my mind daily while I was at Harrisburg State Hospital.
Unfortunately, I was too young in the faith to know what to do about them. I
later learned from Chaplain Blackwell that I could take authority over the
demons in the name of Jesus."
