Trying: Reflections On Faith Through Infertility, Miscarriage & Loss (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798739229052)

"IT DIDN'T GO THE WAY I PLANNED."
Trying is a collection of women's personal journeys through infertility, miscarriage, failed IVF, adoption loss and other devastating experiences while trying to become a mother. Their stories, ages and circumstances are all different, but they have one thing in common: it didn't go the way they planned.

Years ago, Emily Gentiles and Lindsay Schott began this project, asking their friends, "How has God formed your heart through this?" These are their answers.

With gracious candor, these women offer refuge to anyone hurting. Their stories aren't a recipe for success and don't wrap deep ache in a pretty bow. Instead, they invite you into the compassionate and patient arms of Jesus through this fellowship of suffering. No matter your story, circumstance, or current relationship with God, this book will remind you that you are not alone in your pain. You are not alone in the darkness you battle. In fact, you are in good company.

GIVING BACK
Emily and Lindsay made a promise to the women who generously contributed their stories that the work wouldn't end here. They committed to donating 50% of all royalties from the sales of this book to a trusted gospel-centered nonprofit. It's a privilege to offer this gift to Lifeline Children's Services, a holistic orphan care ministry that works to equip the Body of Christ to manifest the gospel to vulnerable children. Whether through adoption, foster care, orphan care, education and counseling, or family restoration, the mission is accomplished when churches begin to live out James 1:27 in their communities and to the ends of the earth.
