God does not waste a single part of our story. And in His hands, what once felt broken can become brave. In Broken to Brave: Allowing God to Heal the Broken Places and Becoming Who He Created You to Be, author Laura Horsch recounts her challenging life circumstances, including sexual assault, shame, and feelings of unworthiness, and the transformative work God did to restore and heal her. Through tears, prayer, and unexpected encounters with His presence, God began revealing something Laura had never fully understood before: the places we feel most broken are often the very places God chooses to restore.
In these pages, you’ll walk through the valleys, the questions, the healing, and the quiet moments where God’s presence changes everything. As you turn these pages, you’ll begin to recognize His presence in places you may have overlooked and can experience His healing where shame once lived. It’s time to discover the courage to step into the life He created you for!

“A few years ago, I had no desire to write a book, especially not a book that would uncover parts of my life I had hidden for decades. Parts I wasn’t proud of. Parts the enemy had tried to use against me. But God had a different plan. Broken to Brave is more than my story. It is an invitation for you to encounter God in yours.”

Loved this book! When I first got it I anticipated reading very quickly. Life has been very busy but I carried this book with me and whenever I had 5 minutes I was happy to have it. Every time I got back to the book, I was amazed how much the next reading meant to me. Congratulations Laura, I loved the book.
I bartended nights for years so my kids could stay out of daycare. When 2020 shut Minnesota down, I turned a side hustle in preventative health into the whole plan — but the bigger shift was learning to walk with God instead of just knowing about Him. I'm not the one who heals people. That's not my job. My job is showing up in the broken places and pointing women back to the One who does.
