That Faith, That Trust, That Love - Softcover

I wrote this book for the ordinary person who struggles to overcome the extraordinary challenges of life--I think that includes us all. If you've faced situations on your job or in your relationships and wondered how you'd overcome them, God has a word for you. Through the lives of Marley Shepherd, a distressed lawyer who has doubts about her impending marriage; her mother, Pamela, who struggles to find happiness as a divorced woman; and Pamela's mother, Ma Grand, who can't figure out how to admit the mistakes she's made in life, That Faith, That Trust, That Love shows how God's faithfulness is a refuge--even when we don't realize or welcome it. For those of us who've tried to navigate life's storms on our own, we see through the lives of Marley, Pam, and Ma Grand that God is waiting and longing to carry us through those storms. When Marley, Pam, and Ma Grand are able to push aside the corrupt ministers and the hypocritical churches and open their hearts to God, they find peace and triumph awaiting them. I pray that this book entertains, uplifts, and inspires you. God bless!
