About this book

As her husband David grew in prominence in public ministry Gwen Wilkerson found herself waging war with formidable enemies on the home front. Readers who have been inspired by Davids bestselling book The Cross and the Switchblade will be touched by the inside story Gwen presents-her struggles with depression the ravages of cancer and marital strife. Gwen takes readers on a journey of faith as she discovers firsthand that the power of God can conquer pain disease and heartache. In this expanded version of an earlier book she gives hope to anyone confronting a difficult passage in life. As a tool for women in crisis as well as for pastors intercessors and church leaders this book offers more than coping skills; it teaches by experience how to abide in Gods strength and actually see miracles take place. With simplicity candor and vulnerability Gwen shows readers how to use suffering as a springboard for spiritual growth. No situation is so hopeless no relationship so lost that the answer cannot be found by trusting in Gods strength.
