The trauma of their young daughter's cancer surgery leads Layton and Amy Brooks to reexamine the assumptions that drove them to divorce. To restore intimacy, they must reframe former events-with honesty, grace, and forgiveness. When cancer strikes the young girl again, the family's fledgling faith encounters new challenges. Will Layton and Amy have the strength to rear a disabled child? How will Brianne cope? As Brianne navigates her unexpected path, her strength teaches others what it means to be truly whole. A Beam of Hope is a story of coming to terms with grief and loss-and embracing renewed hope and unexpected grace. "These characters are flawed, yet loveable. I found myself rooting for them in their struggles and trials." -Lori Hatcher, author of Hungry for God ... Starving for Time
