'Once we encounter Christ, our lives can never remain the same.'In Life Times Two, Susan D. Boerckel delivers a luminous and deeply personal memoir that traces her journey from the grip of addiction and despair to the freedom of spiritual renewal. Set against the backdrop of the Crossville Mission Bible Training Center in Tennessee, this powerful narrative blends the grit of recovery literature with the transcendent arc of faith, redemption, and transformation.With unflinching honesty and grace, Boerckel recounts her descent into brokenness and her awakening to a new life rooted in hope and belief. Her story unfolds not in isolation but within a community of others seeking healing-each with their own story of struggle and grace. The Mission becomes more than a setting; it is a living, breathing character, echoing the enduring legacy of the Jesus Movement of the 1960s and its ongoing impact on faith-based recovery.Echoing the candor of Tara Westover’s Educated and the emotional insight of Glennon Doyle’s Untamed, Life Times Two stands apart for its grounded spirituality and communal focus. Like David Sheff’s Beautiful Boy and Jeannette Walls’ The Glass Castle, Boerckel’s memoir captures the fragility and strength of the human spirit-but with a message that places Christ at the center of true healing.Through prose that is both direct and compassionate, Boerckel avoids sentimentality and moralizing, offering instead a voice of authenticity that resonates with anyone navigating addiction, identity, or belief in a fractured world. Her story is not merely one of survival-it is a declaration of renewal, purpose, and divine grace.Life Times Two is more than a memoir-it is a mirror held up to every reader who has ever struggled to find meaning in suffering. It is a story of second chances, of faith forged through fire, and of the redemptive power of surrender.For readers of spiritual memoirs, addiction recovery, and Christian inspirational nonfiction, this book offers hope that healing is possible, freedom is real, and faith can transform even the darkest chapters of our lives.
