""Sometimes, the most profound strength is found not in our ability to endure, but in our willingness to embrace vulnerability.""
Indestructible tells the shocking story of a marriage that didn't go as planned, the truth that shattered everything, and the beautiful unfolding of a woman who decided that saving her marriage wasn't worth losing herself. Like most people, Allison Fallon didn't get married thinking she would get divorced. In fact, marrying a pastor felt like the surest way to guarantee a safe and happy marriage. So when she found out the man she married was not the man she thought he was, she had some choices to make. A wrestling with faith and love, romance and drama, truth and fiction, this story calls into question what it means to fall in love, stay in love, and become a force of love and change in the world. Although Indestructible is only one woman's story, it serves as a powerful reminder to anyone who has been disillusioned by love that falling in love might be harder and easier than they ever imagined; and that "the one" they're looking for is closer than they think.
