“Join author and world-renowned trauma therapist Dr. Jamie Marich for this special, in-person event to celebrate the launch of her newest book, “You Lied to Me About God: A Memoir.” This is the most personal book in Jamie’s collection so far, as she shares stories of her personal experiences with spiritual abuse and recovery.
