Trusting God When You Have Cancer
Help and Hope For the Road Ahead
By Jerry Cook & Ron Pinkston
Photography by Nancy J. Locke
Trusting God isn't always an easy thing to do, but especially when cancer strikes. It's so hard to conceive of a process that wracks your body with pain and brings forward emotions you've never dreamed of and can't possibly understand until you go through it. Loved ones watch and offer support but they really don't know what a person with cancer is going through.
This book offers hope, understanding and comfort in ways that I never dreamed of.
Long time friends and authors Jerry Cook and Ron Pinkston are both suffering from cancer. They agree to write each other letters once a week during their treatments to share their experiences, belief in God and offer each other the comfort and understanding that only someone who has gone through it can do. This books has snippets of these letters and I am in awe of their generosity in sharing them with us.
The photographs by Nancy J. Locke go perfectly with the text of this book. They are in turn soothing and exhilarating and constantly remind us of God's love for us all and for the bounty that he offers us in this lifetime.
A time of peace, a time of hope, a time of renewal. These are all things that this book with it's wonderful letters and it's breath taking photography offer. It should definitely be a part of every home, hospital, hospice and library.
