Secure in God

In the middle of World War II, Rita Malsch, the youngest of four girls, was born in the picturesque city of Heppenheim, Germany. Growing up in an area rich with culture and history, she inherited a love of theater, art, and literature. After marrying, she and her husband emigrated to the United States, where Rita opened a licensed family daycare. Life was engaging, but in 2002, tragedy struck. A drunk driver hit Rita, and she was forced to close her business. A third surgery on her spine, to alleviate pain and damage from the accident, left her paralyzed instead. After a lengthy rehabilitation, Rita returned home and regained some mobility using a walker. While adjusting to a new life, she found that drawing, painting, and writing were important to her healing process. Along the way, she learned to exercise, trust God, paint, write, and take life as it comes. Secure in God is her second book, sharing poetry and artwork reflecting her life with Christ. Mystical, practical, relatable, and inspirational, this testament to the healing powers of faith and creativity will nourish your soul.
