The Girl Got Up

A cruciform memoir

by Rachel M Srubas

The Girl Got Up is a spiritual memoir, or as Rachel Srubas says. "retrospection with an eye towards the eternal".  Though it is, to be sure, a resurrection memoir, it is also heartbreakingly cruciform.  Srubas refuses to recount her getting up before an honest account of being brought low, of the breaking of her spirit.  Blending personal narrative with scriptural wisdom, she offers shining new insights into the nature of childhood, spiritual awakening, sexuality, sin, love, marriage, compassion, the proclamation of Christ's resurrection, and more.
