A Faith Destroyed: One Woman's Journey to Reclaim Her Faith and Her Life Leanne Hathaway

LeAnne Hathaway will never forget the day she met Jack Worthy Giles. It was a day that would change her life forever. Shortly before the chance encounter, LeAnne had a busy life and a successful career. She was known for her love of music and she had many friends. She played piano as part of the worship team at her local church. She was happy, idealistic, and loved by all who knew her. So when she suddenly disappeared without a trace with a virtual stranger-a self-proclaimed prophet of God-the shockwaves it sent were deeply felt by the people who knew her best, and the many others both in her community and across the country who held vigils and continually prayed for her safe return. For three long months, LeAnne journeyed with the stranger, having no contact with her husband or family. Believing she had heard the voice of God urge her to embark on a new life, she began to shed her own beliefs and replace them with the teachings of a man who claimed to be the Son of God. But somewhere, deep in her soul was a longing for the life she once knew, and a desperate yearning to reconcile with the family and friends she had left behind. When at last she had to choose between continuing to chase after God or face that she had been deceived, her darkest moment gave way to an incredible healing miracle and long-awaited journey home.
