Marlane Renner’s recent book, The Elephant in My Living Room, tells the transparent story of her "elephant" - a blindspot or problem that was obvious to everyone else but invisible to her - and reveals the healing process that restored her to wholeness. The book’s universal principles can help everyone who have elephants (divorce, alcoholism, addictions of any kind, death of a loved one, adoption, abortion, abuse, etc.) in the living rooms of their lives. No matter what the name of your elephant, there is hope!

An accompanying study guide is a free gift with the purchase of this book.
