She just couldn t shake the feeling that he would never return and her instinct was right. Ben was killed in a workplace accident just a few weeks later.\r\n\r\nStruggling to find her way as a widow and a newly single mother, Connie Jo threw herself into her church community, finding solace in God s word and in helping others. Still, she was lonely, and when a friend introduced her to charismatic Del Mobley, she saw a new life for herself as a pastor s wife.\r\n\r\nIt was love at first sight for Connie Jo but greed at first sight for Del. And it wasn t long before he took all she owned and then methodically wore her down through a terrifying campaign of violent physical and emotional abuse.\r\n\r\nBelieving that as a religious man, Del could do no wrong, Connie Jo stayed with him until she almost lost her family, her home and her life and realized the importance of remaining true to herself and, above all else, her faith."}, "covers": [7237898], "last_modified": {"type": "/type/datetime", "value": "2012-09-19T20:03:18.486098"}, "latest_revision": 4, "key": "/works/OL16794569W", "title": "At Death's Door...
