Coming Soon
In Chosen – A Child of Abuse, sixteen-year-old Justine lives with her father, mother, and younger siblings. Money is tight for the family, and getting food to eat on most days is challenging.

However, one day, after losing her baby, Justine walked away from her home to live with her grandfather, who lived close to her family home. While living there, she learned more about her mother, met a new friend and found the courage to break up with her boyfriend. There, Justine also met her Saviour.
