What People Are Saying

“I warmly recommend this highly atypical book. . . . In its pages you will be taken on a profound journey through the heart of a mother directly into the heart of God the Father. This book will greatly challenge and encourage every parent, as it did me, and will show parents how children are treasures from a loving Father graciously sent to prepare them for an eternal home.”
Steve Wood
President, Family Life Center International
“This is a story of a beautiful young man who . . . liberated [his parents] from cultural patterns, from their highly planned life. It tells how he led them to the heart of the Gospel message, a road to life, to greater happiness and holiness through seeing life and people through the heart and eyes of Jesus.”
Jean Vanier
Founder, L’ Arche
“Beth Matthews shares both her strengths and her weaknesses in such a way that you will be drawn into a glimpse of yourself. You will laugh with her and cry with her. And in the midst of it all, you will appreciate more deeply than before your own family and the ways in which the Lord is using your loved ones to draw your heart closer to Him.”
