From Zion to a City of Hope

"July 16, 2015, I was diagnosed with Stage III Multiple Myeloma, a form of bone cancer. 90% of my marrow was cancerous, my kidneys had failed, and I was anemic. The admitting oncologist told me it was a miracle I even survived the flight from Los Angeles to Chicago to get to the hospital.

It was indeed a miracle, but it was in no way the first, and there were many more yet to come."

What do you do when you, a loved one, or a friend face a life-threatening situation with very little chance of survival? How do you react? In what or whom do you trust? In what or whom do you place your faith?

In this book, my wife and I describe the roller coaster journey of faith we traveled along with everyone who decided to support us through prayer and in other tangible ways.

Readers will learn about the power of corporate prayer, how God ministers to His people miraculously and through others, and what to do when facing similar circumstances. Readers will gain insight into the cancer support community and what cancer patients and their families experience during their bouts with the disease.

Every crisis we face is a challenge to our faith. How we make our way through these crises and the condition we are in afterward depends on what or in whom we place our faith. This book is a testimony to what happens when you place your faith in God.
