Finding Grace

From the New York Times–bestselling author of the Christmas Hope series, a “powerful” memoir of a woman's challenges on the road to motherhood (Chris Gardner, #1 New York Times–bestselling author of The Pursuit of Happiness).

Finding Grace is the story of one woman’s journey through suffering and pain, and her unlikely road to motherhood. Donna VanLiere, acclaimed author of inspirational stories, gives a candid look into her own life as she confronts the painful legacy of her past and struggles to understand why our desires are sometimes denied when we need God most.

This book is for anyone who has questioned where God is in times of hardship, or struggled to find peace and purpose in the face of broken dreams. With humor and unflinching honesty, VanLiere shares her experiences of infertility, adoption, and healing from childhood sexual abuse. Ultimately, Finding Grace is a story about the undeserved gift of life itself, and the transformative power of faith and resilience. It is a deeply moving memoir that will inspire and resonate with readers on their own journeys of hope and healing.

“At turns poignant and humorous, [VanLiere's] memoir is impossible to put down. . . . It has the same appeal as Rabbi Harold S. Kushner’s excellent book, When Bad Things Happen to Good People.” —Booklist, starred review
