Marble Girl: and the Issue of Blood

This is a book about family, trauma, dreams, disappointments, and internal struggle. I am a raw nerve... I would be dishonest if I didn't put it plainly. I wouldn't wish anything like this experience on anyone. To the fatherless... this one is for you.

Stephanie Josiah Author / Speaker / Poet is a wife and mother of four wonderful children. One of them removed from her world physically, but forever in her heart, taught her more lessons than any other human she has ever met. In her son's three bittersweet years of ministry, she was shaped into the kind of woman that would trust God for anything... even at a seemingly dead end. Join her as she shares her deepest, most raw feelings about the loss of her son (through the use of journaling and poetry): the tough days, the okay days, and the days filled with victory and praise. You will be encouraged to know that you are not alone in your pain. God is faithful! Find her other books on LULU.com, AMAZON, BAM, etc.

This little book has a whole lot of light in it!
