Abigail Neilson is an author and inspirational speaker who has a passion to bring the message of hope, healing, and restoration to people who are hurting and in despair!

Having herself overcome rejection from amongst other things; racial discrimination while growing up in South Africa during the apartheid era. She has also overcome gender based violence and survived childhood sexual abuse, rape, and domestic violence. She candidly shares her story of redemption to inspire others to not only survive, but thrive!

Her name Abigail means “Joy of the Father” but for 35 years she lived in a pit of despair, was driven by rejection, fuelled by rage, bitterness, and hatred. Abigail was on a collision course with hell! 

But God by His Grace redeemed her life from the slimy pit of despair and set her on a journey of healing and restoration as her hope was restored.

Abigail’s heart’s desire is to see every broken life healed and restored, and for people to fully experience the lavish love, grace, and mercy of God Our Heavenly Father.
