What People Are Saying
about the book
''‘Who you are and Whose you are’ is a vitally important book because it is the voice of lived experience speaking. It details in an unflinching manner the anatomy of abuse and of an abuser and the consequent, destructive descent into trauma. People, male and female, who have been traumatised by abusive others will recognise much of themselves in this book. However, as Nicole emphasises, she is not simply passing on information. She is making a clarion call to all who will listen, “My God is able!” He is able to redeem, to raise the dead even, to reshape, to revive and to reinvigorate.''
''What I like about this book is its message that what we’ve been through doesn’t have to define the rest of our lives. Sometimes, after difficult experiences, it’s easy to lose sight of who we really are. I appreciate how Amanda Nicole connects faith, healing, and understanding ourselves in a way that feels personal and meaningful. Knowing that she shares parts of her own story makes the book feel even more heartfelt. I think this is a book that could offer comfort and hope to anyone trying to find themselves again and move forward.''
''The author’s stated aim in writing ‘Who you are and Whose you are’ is to cause readers to look “forward towards what is possible when truth, courage, grace and the restoring love of God begin to reshape a life.” Nicole’s book is important at many levels. It is important because it opens up Christian dialogue about family violence, abuse and consequent trauma... Abuse and trauma occur within communities, under our very noses and we need to talk about it.''
''A thoughtful and beautifully written book. I really enjoyed the way it encourages self-reflection and reminds us of the importance of understanding who we are and what truly matters. A meaningful read with a message that stays with you.''
''It is obvious from the first chapter that the Holy Spirit is Nicole’s co-author and therein lies its power and importance. It is His breath in her words that can open the way to healing and redemption for the reader, male or female. Her God-glorifying testimony can be theirs too.''
''I can certainly see this book as a ‘handbook’ to keep coming back to as one’s healing progresses. I thoroughly recommend this book and believe that Amanda Nicole will stand on platforms under the anointing of the Holy Spirit bringing life and life more abundantly to women internationally.''
''An honest and genuine book about healing from trauma and knowing your value in Christ. Well written, easy to read and digest. Highly recommend!''
