For anyone seeking to deal with unexpected tragedy,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hope Grows in Winter (Paperback)
Hope Grows In Winter: Inspiring Real-life Stories Of How Hope Changes Lives deals with the issues of suffering and grief that are the inevitable experience of all men and women. Each of the contributors has endured a personal tragedy: a pastor diagnosed with full-blown AIDS, a young mother discovering she has breast cancer; an upstanding Christian father learning that his unmarried adolescent daughter is pregnant, another father who suddenly lost his beloved four year old son. Yet in spite of the their pain and hopeless feelings, each of these men and women reached the same conclusion -- hope does indeed grow in winter. This wonderful compendium of inspiration from a Christian perspective is highly recommended reading for anyone seeking to deal with unexpected tragedy in their lives or the lives of their loved ones.
