The inspiring biography of Val Jeal who stepped out in faith and changed the lives of many female sex workers in Bristol.
After leading a very conventional life, a middle-aged Val told God she was available to be used by him. Moving to an inner-city church, God opened her eyes and heart to what was happening in Bristol, and so began a remarkable rollercoaster ride of love, compassion, burnout, determination, honesty, victories and defeats.
Founding the charity One25, Val worked with the female sex workers of Bristol, offering a listening ear, acceptance, support and a safe place to stay that has changed many lives.
Val's incredible story shows that it is never too late for God to work in your life and will encourage you to have the faith to step out and do what God has called you to do.
