Listen to Iris' June 20th interview on WBCL's Mid-Morning show here. Six wonderful authors are featured during the show's Author! Author! segment. (Iris is on the show from minutes 21:29 to 32:14.)
Iris was raised in a middle-class Christian home, but she was rebellious almost from the start. Running away at the age of thirteen, she became involved with drugs and prostitution, and at seventeen was arrested for armed robbery. Once released from prison, she continued down a path of self-destruction. From numerous abortions to using heroin, to managing a topless bar, Iris turned from God's calling again and again.
But God, who in eternity past had devised a plan for this "incorrigible" rebel, didn't give up on Iris. He had work for her to do, and would one day turn this "incorrigible" rebel into one of His beautiful trophies of grace. Iris: Trophy of Grace by Ron Owens with Iris Blue details Iris' life, from self-destruction to God's salvation.
