Desperate Hope by Candi Pearson-Shelton

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
As her younger brother battled for life in the ICU, musician Candi Pearson-Shelton and her family sat waiting and praying, struggling to hang on to hope. Rick Pearson died anyway, at age 23. But in those tense ICU days and the painful months and years that followed Rick’s death, the family somehow settled on a mission: to seek out the glory of God shining through the sorrow and to reflect that glory, even if it meant seeing their plans come to ruin. In this fiercely honest yet faithful book, Candi shares the “gentle whispers and hard-learned faith lessons” that came to them along their journey, offering a song of praise to One who, in the midst of tragedy, pain, and confusion, revealed not only His glory, but also beauty, unexpected graces, a hope more grounded in faith, and a shifted perspective that changed nothing…but somehow made all the difference.

MY REVIEW
What a phenomenal books about hope, tragedy, loss and life!

You cannot read this book without being challenged; whether in your daily walk, in your faith, or in your outlook on life and death.

Candi allows you to walk next her as she counts the bittersweet journey of her brother's fight with cancer. Along with way she shares amazing and truthful insight in God's word and the lessons she learned from this valley.

Have a box of kleenex near, maybe even two!

Candi shares a handful of blog posts and comments written by friends from the website that the family set up to keep family updates.

Well done! A must read!

Such a bittersweet topic,  a dear Christian brother or sister leave this world and dance into the presence of God. Candi shared enough about the situation, thoughts, prayers and feelings to give you insight into their heart and mind, and the lessons they learned, all while keeping her family life discrete.
