This is not just a story, it is a journey through survival, healing, and becoming. In The Light I Learned to Hold, Christin Holland shares a deeply personal reflection of her life, shaped by childhood instability, trauma, foster care, and the quiet strength it takes to rebuild. Through carefully chosen moments, she invites readers into the lessons behind the experiences. Not to dwell in pain, but to reveal the growth that can come from it. This memoir is written with intention. It does not recount every detail, but instead focuses on the truths that shaped her identity, her boundaries, and her understanding of self-worth. Each chapter offers insight into resilience, emotional awareness, and the process of choosing peace over survival. Interwoven throughout the book are guided reflections, scripture, and journaling prompts, creating space for readers to process their own experiences, release what no longer serves them, and begin again with clarity and grace. This book is for: Those healing from difficult childhoods or past trauma Anyone learning to set boundaries and rediscover their worth Individuals seeking a safe, reflective space to process their story Readers who desire faith-centered encouragement and personal growth You will not just read this book, you will experience it. If you have ever questioned your past, your identity, or your future, this memoir serves as a reminder: Your beginning does not have to define your ending. ISBN 979-8-234-03450-2
