The Little Engine That Could

I remember when I was a little girl one of my most favorite books was "The Little Engine that Could". Now for all of you X, Y, Z and subsequent generationers (...is thatuntitled even a word?), you may never even have heard about this book!

'Shoot the wounded... what we do to people who are the most vulnerable... we 'shoot the wounded.' As if they haven't suffered enough, we add to it by gossiping and treating hurt people like outcasts." ..."I think we killed Ronnie's spirit... Instead of coming alongside her and supporting her through this, I failed her...”
Lynn Dove, Shoot the Wounded

“If any accolades come in the writing of this story, all praise will be His, all Glory will rightly go to Him. If He will allow me to share some part in this, I am truly humbled.”
