As a Christian, how do you cope with the fury, agony and bitterness?

Written by six powerful women who have gone through the pain of infertility, and completed the journey, this devotional book will help those that are in need through journaling prompts, prayer exercises, and The Word.

Some of the topics discussed in the book include: infertility testing, diagnosis, decision making, infertility treatment, miscarriage and pregnancy loss, pregnancy and childbirth, being childless, adoption, foster care, child sponsorship, and orphan hosting and emotional replenishment.

Through God’s grace they overcame this tough stage—and so can you.
