Under the Rainbow: A mother's experiences of the promises of God

di Catherine Campbell (Autore)

SPCK Publishing, 2013

This story of a mother's journey heartache, loss and total reliance on the grace of God is told with remarkable honesty as disappointment turns to devastation, anger and finally to peace and acceptance. Not just one, but two, of Catherine's three children are born with multiple disabilities. With her pastor husband, they had two daughters who were genetically damaged. Despite faithfully nursing them until they died at the ages of 13 and 10, the girls never developed the ability to recognise their parents. In time Catherine came to view her family tragedy from a different perspective. In this heartfelt retelling, she shows us the delights as well as the sorrows of her family life; we get to stand Under the Rainbow with her as she experiences the promises of God, which eventually lead to acceptance and freedom. This book will make you laugh, and it may make you cry, but ultimately it will reveal to you a God who always keeps His promises. More than an autobiography, the book takes a glimpse at issues such as friendship; helping children grieve, and turning pain into gain. It will make you laugh, and it may make you cry, but ultimately it will reveal to you a God who always keeps His promises.
