    Six weeks into a blissful honeymoon, life turns into a nightmare when Susan’s 9-year-old daughter is taken away and her husband is falsely accused of molestation. 
    Dragged under the churning wheels of the child protection system, Susan is given a choice—either cooperate in prosecuting her innocent husband or lose her daughter. When the couple doesn’t cave to pressure, Susan loses custody, and her husband is charged with a felony that carries a 16-year prison sentence.No one wants to hear the facts.No one wants to know the truth. 
    It’s the 1980s—a decade of unfounded abuse accusations, hysterical claims of orgies at daycare centers, families controlled by courts, and an abusive child protection system that had become the very thing it was created to eradicate. 
    “We are not to simply bandage the wounds of victims beneath the wheels of injustice, we are to drive a spoke into the wheel itself.” ― Dietrich Bonhoeffer 
    Wheels of Injustice is a curtains-pulled-back, true account of the 1980s out-of-control child protection system and the victims who risked everything to expose the egregious injustices and reform it. It's a tribute to God's faithfulness and a message of hope to others who have struggled to overcome adversity, fight injustice, or turn an upended life the right way around again.

    It's What You Do Next - The Fall...

    In 2015, after a historic run-off election, Megan Barry became the first female mayor of Nashville, Tennessee. Quickly becoming one of the most popular progressive politicians in the Bible Belt, Barry was a beloved leader with a sky-high approval rating and an unshakable hope for a new, forward-thinking, modern South. For her first few years in office, she was one of the most important voices at the table—until she became the most notorious. 
     
     
     
    Barry loved three things the most in the world—her son, Max, her husband, Bruce, and her job as the mayor of Nashville . . . until she lost two of them. Her monumental lapse in judgment led to a painful public reckoning and the fall of her rising political career. A battle with substance-use disorder robbed her of her only child. Grief, pride, shame, longing, and resentment nearly destroyed her marriage. Barry has to start again, the right way, with humility, hope, and a wicked sense of humor. 
     
     
     
    It's What You Do Next is a deeply honest book about womanhood at home, in politics, and in the spaces between.  Warm, funny, and uncompromisingly honest, Barry speaks to women as their close friend, not their fearless leader, her true self, not always her best self. She gives listeners permission to come as they are and leave knowing that what matters most, is what happens next.
