Very few books draw the reader in and grab the reader’s emotions like Recovering Hope does! A very powerful book with a gripping tale of deep loss & sorrow, feeling abandoned & even hated by God, fighting one’s way back from the depths of despair to having faith restored, and finding God had a purpose greater than they thought possible. A truly emotional read that will touch one’s heart long after the last page, and encourage the reader that God will never abandon us, even while going through dark valleys. I have so many favorite quotes, and here is one of them: “He desperately loved these people – every single one in the room – and He had provided the platform for His gospel to shine into their lives.” I definitely & highly recommend this book!
Years were present through much of this book as Tyler and spent a year overcoming a great tragedy.
We see God’s love and healing throughout.
The storyline was emotional filled with vivid characters.
This book is recommended for those who love Christian romance with a strong inspirational message.
Reading, for me, has always been a great love. You can travel to places I would never get to any other way, you can find humor and literally laugh out loud when no other person is around you. You can learn about history, sports, maybe science….the world is at your fingertips when you love to read!
Every now and then you may come across a book that simply grabs your heart strings and carries you along for a ride. Recovering Hope is such a book. It has happy moments, joyful celebrations, beautiful characters….and heartbreaking despair. Yes, I said despair.
Recovering Hope is a book that gives you all of these things and more…it also gives you HOPE. Hope for a future when your whole world is crashing down around you. Hope that someday, no matter what has happened, there will be light in your life again. Hope that resonates throughout your soul that there IS a God, and that He does love us.
I always say that God has a plan and a reason for everything, even if we cannot see it at the time, one day we will have something so wonderful happen in our lives and realize that we would never be in this exact moment if that crushing situation had not taken place.
Recovering Hope is that story….please read and be ready to cry….and rejoice!
Recovering Hope is a very moving story of a young couple who have a very happy marriage and life. An incident immediately changed their whole life. It really touched me how deep the well was where they fell and how difficult the climb to get out. Love, prayer and God’s intervention miraculously change all this misery for the better. It is a story that touches your heart and it is very well written
Hope and Tyler’s story is truly inspirational and emotional. The way Taylor takes care of Hope and stands by her is truly amazing. It is hard to imagine what they are going through, it is so sad. You will feel God working throughout this wonderful book. I had the honor to review this book for the author for a honest review. I would give this book a higher rating than a five star review if I could.
Year 14 sept 2001 – HOpe and Tyler have a beautiful news, they will become parents.
The life is hard for the parents, siblings, children. With time, faith, hope, you can handle the problems. nice book!
This book had me captivated from the very first page. The story was powerful, emotional, heartwrenching and happy how Marion could get such different emotions in one book is beyond me. It really lets you know what people that face depression goes through. My daughter suffers from depression, I knew it was bad for her but never really how bad it can actually get. This story just tugged at my heart so much. God can restore anything and everything and I am so thabkful that Marion shows that through all of her books. I strongly recommend that everyone get this book. Excellant job by Marion Ueckermann.
Such a painful and incredibly well done novel. As a mother , oh my heart aches. This book could be very triggering for many people. It is an incredible book dealing with loss and a Christian perspective all along the lengthy aftermath. Very sober. Phenomenal.
I received a complimentary copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving an honest review.
