Fearfully, Wonderfully Made

When Steven Knipp found his lover dead from an AIDS-related suicide, he was forced to confront his soul-crushing reality; he was only twenty-nine and suffered from the same deadly disease. It was 1991 and AIDS was on the rampage. Gay men were dropping dead from a virus that had no treatment or cure. Faced with his impending demise, Steve was trapped in a vortex of blinding grief and terror, fearing he would never find love again. Then he met David Jaeger, a gay Catholic priest grappling with demons of his own. The two men, who both considered themselves damaged goods, found the love and companionship they desperately needed-even though it meant living their lives in secret.Fearfully, Wonderfully Made is a riveting memoir about unimaginable loss and the healing power of love. At its core, it is an uplifting tale of hope and fortitude and a powerful reminder that we all have a choice: to live fully in the face of death, to choose love over fear.
