Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Anne Marie Hamming headed into motherhood with a fairly simple plan. Motherhood would be part of her life, but certainly not all of it. A divorce and a baby boy who didn't thrive weren't part of the plan. Follow her through a gut-wrenching and risky decision to leave a career for full-time motherhood with a child who just kept getting sicker. After three years of mysterious symptoms, he was diagnosed with a rare autoimmune condition that only a bone marrow transplant could reverse. In Saving Lee, Finding Grace, Anne relives her family's tender journey through grave illness and recovery to find hope waiting for them on the other side. In the process, she comes to terms with the mothering role she never sought or envisioned. This memoir of redemption will touch all who have faced major, unexpected changes and rewritten their lives with freshness and honesty."--Back cover.
Download or read book Saving Grace written by Lee Smith and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2013-12-03 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "LUCID IN EXECUTION, BREATHTAKING IN SCOPE AND HEART-RENDING IN EFFECT--A REDEMPTIVE WORK OF ART. . . . Lee Smith has done more than write another novel about the South. She has broken through the grotesque surface to the underground spring, the music of Scrabble Creek, and the effect is stunning--a beguiling, gentle prose formed by an honesty so severe we are brought to our knees. . . . This novel has a grand and singular purpose, to clothe the spirit with flesh. In this, Lee Smith succeeds." --The Washington Post Book World "A compelling journey into all matters southern and spiritual . . . . Set in North Carolina and Tennessee, we follow young Grace Shepherd from a cabin in the bucolic poverty of Scrabble Creek to independence as a single woman. Stops along the way include seduction by a half-brother, a failed marriage, motherhood, the loss of her son, residence in the aptly-named Creekside apartments in Knoxville and a job waitressing. . . . While Grace's path may be a journey many of us would not choose to undertake, we have to raise a small fist of jubilance to Grace for having survived." --The Boston Sunday Globe "Ms. Smith possesses a fine talent for creating narrative voices, whether the ungrammatical eloquence of a hill-country healer or the educated affectations of a Richmond gentleman." --The New York Times Book Review "Lee Smith patiently woos us into double vision. . . . As her fans know, [she] has one of the truest ears for the speech in her part of the world." --Los Angeles Times Book Review
Download or read book Shattered Days written by Lee Trawick and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2017-05-18 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the world on the brink of collapsing to the Nazi regime, the world is looking for a miracle. One is found in an open field in northern France on March 19, 1944. Thaddeus Grace is left for dead by the Germans and presumed dead by the United States. He awakens with no memory of who he is, how he got there, or what he is doing there, armed with only a photograph. He is driven to make a difference and fight his way through the war and find the woman in the photograph, who saved him. Throughout, he is faced with many insurmountable odds. He faced them all while inspiring a nation to rise and defend their homeland. But this leaves the question to be answered. Who is the beautiful woman in the photograph? And what role did she play in his life? Can the beauty of a woman inspire a lost soldier to lead an army against the greatest of odds to change the fate of the world? That question is answered on March 19, 1944, in northern France. This story is inspired by the true events of Zara and Thaddeus Grace and the amazing love that has stood the test of time for over seventy years. Three years ago, I asked my great-aunt Tiny (Zara Grace) to tell me about Thaddeus Grace. She immediately lit up as if she was falling in love for the first time. She talked about him over the next two days. I could easily see how proud she still was of him and how much she was in love with him today. I knew at that point I had to tell this amazing story, which takes us back to WWII. I am honored to tell this story of my family.

Download or read book The Case for Grace written by Lee Strobel and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2015-02-24 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Join investigative journalist and bestselling author Lee Strobel as he embarks on his life-changing quest to solve the riddle of grace. Along the way, you'll find the undeniable evidence of grace in the true stories of racists, addicts, and even murderers who have found new hope and purpose--all through the redemptive power of God's amazing grace. In The Case for Grace, Lee offers an accessible explanation of the theology of God's grace, shown through the incredible, dramatic, can't-put-it-down stories of people whose lives were changed by the gift of grace--true accounts of people whose transformation and renewal are so radical that they seem to be best explained as the work of a gracious God. Lee draws upon his own journey from atheism to Christianity to explore the depth and breadth of God's redeeming love for spiritually wayward people, traveling thousands of miles to capture the inspiring stories of everyday people whose values have been radically changed and who have discovered the "how" and "why" behind God's amazing grace. Each story that Strobel shares in The Case for Grace contributes a piece to the puzzle of grace, showing us: How grace goes beyond forgiveness to acceptance and even adoption by God How it restores hope when none is left; how it extends to the most heinous circumstances How it allows us to forgive those who caused our most intimate wounds--and even to forgive ourselves Through it all, you will be encouraged as you see how God's grace can revolutionize your life--starting today.

Download or read book Even If written by Mitchel Lee and published by Multnomah. This book was released on 2021-08-17 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do you worship God even if life isn’t going the way you had hoped? “Even If is not some bumper sticker to display, but a daring commitment to live.”—Kyle Idleman, senior pastor of Southeast Christian Church “I believe we will see more resilient people in the face of suffering because of this great book.”—Bryan Loritts, teaching pastor at The Summit Church What happens when the test comes back positive? The relationship ends? The dream goes unfulfilled? The plans don’t move forward? Amid confusion, hurt, and anger, we wonder where we went wrong. What is God doing? In Even If, Mitchel Lee reminds us that while God does not promise a pain-free life, he offers something better: his presence in the pain. No matter our circumstances, God is worthy of our worship, and he can meet us even in our greatest difficulties. Drawing on his own journey, Mitchel explores the compelling story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego in Daniel 3. These three men chose to worship God even if God didn’t rescue them from the fire. From their example and countless others, we can do the same. Maybe you are stuck in regret, grieving a loss, or unsure of how to take your next step because there is no promise of success. Even If offers the courage you need to move forward, declaring devotion—not in spite of life’s fires but because of them—to a God whose goodness never changes.

When she secretly quits her meds, she begins to suspect that once her father passes, her husband will murder her for her inheritance.

She hires acclaimed author Lynn Andrews to help edit her literary insurance policy, but when Lynn is murdered, Grace is discovered standing over the bloody remains. The clock is ticking: can she write and publish her manuscript before she is strapped into a straitjacket, accused of homicide, or lowered six feet under? With a cast of secondary characters whose challenges mirror Grace's own, Saving Grace is, at its core, an allegory for the struggle of the marginalized to be heard and live life on their own terms.
