A Limp of Faith: Memoir of a Disabled Disciple Suzanne Rood

At a church revival just before her sixteenth birthday, Suzanne made a fresh commitment to follow Christ, asking God to take full control of her life. He did. Within months she was diagnosed with CMT, a hereditary neuropathy. Then her father's job required the family to move out of state. A series of broken romances and increasing symptoms of the disease left her grappling with issues of self-worth and wondering if God would really provide for her."A Limp of Faith is an honest and genuine look at life with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease. Suzanne's vivid descriptions make you feel as if you are a part of her family, or her best friend sharing a cup of tea. You feel her fear and frustrations as her muscles atrophy and she has to navigate slippery restroom floors and uneven walking paths. But she is faithful to her God, and she wants us all to see what she so clearly sees: God is faithful to us." Debbie Nauman, Board Chair, Arrive Ministries
