This is a beautiful book destined to touch wounded hearts.
There are some deep places in everyone's heart where few dare to explore. Bernadette went there, and boldly decided to share her discoveries with the world. Her openness concerning the loss of her sweet babies is heart-breaking but inspiring. Thank you, Bernadette, for speaking to the hearts of so many! God bless!

A most touching depiction of the mercy and love of God.
Bernadette shares with deep candidness her story of pain, loss, grief. In all of it, the grace, mercy and love of God saw her and her husband, Phil, through... to a peace that passes understanding. One cannot read this and think that a life is to be lived without problems. We only grow in and from the pain in our lives. The "good times" are when we enjoy the joy of having seen God's hand in the troubled times. Holding us when we can't hold ourselves,seeing us through when we can't see anything but blackness, is the grace of God. Read this and realize that your pain is no less or greater than that pain of someone else. It helped me be less short-sighted and hopefully less full of self-pity. susie melkus

Touches the heart of miscarriage and infant death issues.
As the directror of the Christian based infertility, pregnancy loss, and infant death ministry, "Hannah's Prayer," I would like to express my gratitude to Bernadette Keaggy for her touching presentation of her struggle to have a child. She is very honest about the pain involved in the emotional and spiritual struggle caused by the loss of her first 5 children (to miscarriage, stillbirth, and early infant death). I regularly recommend this book to couples facing such losses. _A Deeper Shade of Grace_ has also been a personal encouragement to me in dealing with my own infertility and the miscarriage of our daughter Noel. If you or a loved one face the loss of a child during pregnacy or shortly after birth, I know this book will offer you much comfort, encouragement, and insight. Please read it!
For further encouragement, please e-mail us directly at Hannah's Prayer.
