Summary: Faith & class
Review: Janet Sonnenberg's book tells a story of the emotional & logical roller coaster that as a mother & woman went through in a tragedy her, her son & family experienced. All of which grow her Faith & integrity, her family as well.
It's a tremendous story of horrific tragedy that is turned into tears of joy. The pictures inside show what the words do not. Above all, a primary message to all people is that no matter what happens to you, its what happens in you that decides your future. It also gives handfuls of examples of where God steps in his always perfect timing to take care of the situation at hand. Once you read this book, you'll also want her son Joel's book "Joel".

Summary: Easy reading, but hard on the heart - it will change you
Review: This book is a journey inside a Christian mother's heart and memory, but not just any mother - a mother whose worst nightmare has come true. On the surface, it's a story of the gruesome events. But behind the events is another tale - of the kind of courage and determination which can only come from the Lord; indeed, even Joel's mother herself initially wished that the stranger had not saved her son's life. As such, it plunges all believers down into the testing waters concerning the sanctity of life and then lifts them back up again, victorious in the sure knowledge that all things are possible in Him who strengthens us. Janet Sonnenberg is a hero for all of us - and so is her son Joel.
