"Enjoy the NEW inspirational memoir from Edward Grinnan, Guideposts' Editor-in-Chief, as he reveals his deeply personal - and hopeful - journey of faith through his mother's Alzheimer's and his own fear of getting the disease. A blessing and encouraging read for anyone facing trials. Edward understands the fear and panic of memory loss and Alzheimer's all too well. He watched Alzheimer's take its ruthless course with his lovely, funny, and intelligent mother, Estelle, and was haunted by the question--will it happen to me too? Now in his deeply personal story, you'll walk with Edward as he travels that painful road of watching a loved one disappear into the fog of Alzheimer's. He discovers - with God's help - hope, courage and peace even in the midst of such loss and heartache. In addition to his remarkable story, Edward includes his favorite Guideposts stories told by real people that inspired him in his journey of faith. Plus, he offers practical guidance on caring for a loved one with Alzheimer's - as well as yourself - without becoming overwhelmed. A Journey of Faith is a tender tribute to Edward's mother, as well as an exploration of the promise of hope, the indestructibility of love, the faithfulness of God, and an eloquent call to make the most out of every moment. Edward's beautiful story will stay with you long after you've read the last page. Makes a perfect gift for anyone struggling with a difficult trial"-- Provided by publisher.
