Synopsis

For fourteen years, Geri lived in a silence forged by pain—an unseen depression so heavy it took over a decade to even begin asking the question: Why?

This is the story of that darkness. Of how words, not fists, broke her spirit. They came cloaked in religion, spoken by those claiming to know God's heart. Whispered with smugness. Shouted with rage. Written with surgical cruelty. Every word seemed to say the same thing: You are evil. And worse—they said it in God’s name.

But this is also a story of light.

In the stillness beyond the noise, Geri encountered a love deeper than shame and stronger than despair. A love that didn’t silence the pain but met her inside it. A love that waited. That healed. That saw her—not as others claimed she was, but as she truly is.

Reflections began as a private reckoning—written quietly for her children—became something more. As she emerged from the cocoon of writing, she realized the world outside mirrored her story. The violence of words was no longer personal; it was national. The church, meant to be salt and light, had too often joined the chorus of condemnation. And the cost was devastating.

Reflections on the Violence of Words is a piercing, personal memoir for anyone who has ever questioned their worth, their faith, or the voice of God amid the noise. Geri’s story doesn’t offer easy answers. But it does offer hope.
