A Spirit Lifter (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781495314407)

Carol Lassiter lives in Frisco, Texas with her husband Colen. They have 3 children and 6 grandchildren. Colen and Carol have spent many years as pastors in Alabama, Illinois, Missouri and Oklahoma. After 30 plus years of being a pastor's wife, Carol was prompted by the Holy Spirit to write about the need for unity, love & positive affirmation in the Body of Christ. Carol gleans stories from her own personal experiences as a pastor's wife, & also as a mother and wife. Carol's story begins when her first child, Audra, was diagnosed as being deaf. While in a revival, Carol was exposed to measles. When the doctor diagnosed Audra as deaf, the Lassiter's were trying to cope as any young couple would do. Adding to their grief were comments from the church: "Well, there must be some sin in their lives or their daughter would not be deaf." This book comes from the heart of Carol as she has had many experiences seeing people's faith and lives destroyed by unkind words & deeds. "A man's spirit sustains him in sickness, but a crushed spirit who can bear?" Proverbs 18:14
