In a six-month period, Jackie receives several phone calls that change her life forever.
The first is a call from her husband. His company was bought out, and he has been asked to resign. Four months later, she learns that her father has suddenly passed away from a heart attack. Less than a month later, she gets the most heart-wrenching news of all: her twenty-six-year-old daughter has committed suicide and has asked Jackie and her husband to raise their six-year-old grandson.
Devastation. Heartbreak. Hopelessness.
Picking up the pieces, she presses on, grinding her way through the tears and leaning hard into the arms of the God she had previously only called upon when she needed something. As tragedy builds upon tragedy, she chooses to keep her faith even in debilitating anguish and watches as God's grace surrounds and sustains her.
Full of triumph as well as trials, Phone Calls: Choices! Decisions that Change Your Life is a candid account of one woman's remarkable, faith-filled journey through unbearably difficult circumstances.
