This is a beautifully written story of heartbreak and hope that can only be told by those who have experienced great love and loss. Sarah is that person. Through her deep love for her husband and the profound loss that followed, she dared to risk love again by choosing to have a daughter from her deceased husband, only to face a mothers worst fear - the loss of a child. Through miraculous intervention her daughter survived against all odds. This is a captivating story of great faith in the midst of deep suffering; a story of life in the midst of death. A story of hope in the depths of despair. Now we need to read the next chapter of the story from this woman of great faith and love of how she willingly chose to open her heart again to a new man and family. I greatly anticipate the sequel.  God bless you, Sarah.

Usually I run from any faith based books as usually the authors use it to spout their personal beliefs but this book stuck to the facts and made no effort to convert anyone. Just the story which has healed my damaged faith in the church. Apparently there really are good God fearing people whom are doing very good humanitarian work. I have never read a better missionary story than this. Made me cry it was so beautiful. Now I want to be a missionary. Bless all people like this author who has done a great service to humanity!

I just finished reading this book. I couldn't put it down.

I am thankful for the faith of Corrie Ten Boom, and her family, for the many lives that were saved and for the faith-building story that continues to be -- through this written testimony.

I cannot recommend this book enough.

Wow!  What a journey of faith written by a mother longing to see her boy healed of a devastating disease.  I cried plenty but there is hope on every page.  The author is completely transparent with her feelings and difficulties but she ultimately trusts in the God of all comfort.  She is completely vulnerable in sharing this story with the world. I found myself embedded in this family's story and grieving with them.  I still visit the author's blog and hope someday she'll write more books because she is truly gifted.

This is a very moving story of faith and a miracle of healing. As a nurse I read the extent of her injuries and truly believe god was with her and leading doctors and others to save her life.

This story of Anne Sanford, and her faith and strength as she battled with leukemia is amazingly inspiring and really touched me as I read it - it really encouraged me in my own faith, as well.  I was moved to tears several times throughout the book. It's a very good story, and a good reminder of how our actions live on beyond our own lives. I highly recommend it.

I have witnessed the Rev. Ridley go from a broken young man deep into drugs and street life to a remarkable servant for God, Husband, Father, preacher and his remarkable faith through very deep valleys of sickness, and still he triumphs. I am awed that he has been able to recall his life journey with such detail and poignant stories that will give us all encouragement and renew faith for the reader.

I can't figure out why some people would rate this book so negatively.  This is an epic story of tradegy and hope.  Lisa Beamer is an incredible woman who has experienced a nightmare that we pray never happens to us.  Yet she has incredible courage, faith, and strength through our Lord in the midst of this crisis.  I can only hope that I would be that strong given the same circumstances.  I know her husband is looking down on her from heaven smiling and being proud.  God knew how strong she was when he allowed such a tradegy to occur.
This book just tells her story.  That's it.  Personally, it encouraged and inspired me to be more like her in my faith!

This wonderfully written book tells an emotional but encouraging story of faith and life in spite of challenges and in defiance of odds! It is not often that people are given the opportunity to witness a genuine miracle, but when it does happen, it is cause for rejoicing in the glory of God. Which is why I recommend picking up this book: to not only read the story of this family's trials and triumphs, but also to rejoice over what God has done through them and in their lives, and to recognize that it points to Him and serves to glorify Him!

Just as God chose to save Samuel physically and give him life, God chooses to save His children and give them eternal life, if only we believe in Jesus Christ in penitent faith for the forgiveness of our sins.

Samantha Chandler is a wonderful story teller and couples that gift with her faith, allowing herself to become completely vulnerable as she unveils the raw emotions of pain and suffering she experienced as a child at the hands of her mother and then in adulthood at the hands of a sadly abusive and controlling husband that included the temporary loss of her children.

Her story is an amazing testimony to the power of faith and human courage (sometimes strong and sometimes weakened) and a desire to grow closer to God that did not wane in the face of overwhelming adversity.

As I read her story there were many times I felt as though I should remove my sandals because it seemed as though I was walking through holy ground. After finishing the book I knew I had just walked through holy ground, the holy ground of a very special relationship between God and his child.

A must read. There is much in Samantha's story for those struggling with life's issues, for those struggling with faith and those whose faith is already on a solid foundation.
