Becky Allender - Memoir
Becky Allender is the author of
Hidden
in Plain Sight: One Woman's Search for Identity, Intimacy and Calling
(2017). In her memoir, Allender explores her journey stepping out from the
shadow of her husband and fellow author,
Dan Allender. Becky often felt 'hidden in plain sight' behind her more vocal
partner. The book describes her successful effort to become visible through the
power of remembering stories and embracing them with kindness. By offering care
and intrigue to her experience it enabled her to gain new freedom to open her
life and highlight the good, the bad and the memorable. Becky invites readers
to ponder their stories and to prize the way God quietly reveals himself in the
mundane and the magnificent parts of our story. This book is a must read for
those who want to transform their lives and become visible in plain sight.
Becky Allender and her husband Dan
live on Bainbridge Island where they raised three children. They are members of
Cross Sound Church and founders of the Allender Center at The Seattle School of
Psychology and Theology in downtown Seattle. Becky Allender facilitates many of
the story workshops the school puts on for those dealing with trauma and sexual
abuse in their formative years.
