Sherri

Sixteen-year-old Sherri Lenier could see no way out of her miserable family existence. Her anger and resentment multiplied every time her alcoholic father lost a job and squandered the grocery money with more drunkenness.

Enraged and desperate, Sherri resorted to shoplifting to put food on the table -- not knowing that one impulsive act would lead her into a habitual life of car theft, check forgery, furniture heists, and , ultimately, a penitentiary sentence.


Hopelessly trapped in a revolving door of crime, Sherri sank deep in despair, until a guard tossed a unique paperback book into her cell—a book that introduced her to the one Person who could change her life forever.

Here is a shockingly real picture of the pressures and influences surrounding many teenagers…and a faith-building example of God's power to free young adults from the lure and addiction of crime.
