First class analysis of the normal human journey from infancy, childhood, adolescence, early adulthood, middle adulthood and senior adulthood. Important insights about grievance, grief, gratitude, and faith in God at each stage of life.
This is a compilation of three sermons given by Claypool; the first after his young daughter was diagnosed with cancer, the second after her remission, the third after her death. It became apparent that his congregation had no idea how to help him cope; some even questioned his faith. It is a story every parent fears, and prays they will never personally experience. His words are powerful. I will never forget this book.
