The Friendship Circle Barbara J Weston

This novel is the portrayal of one woman's journey to find answers to the age-old question - "If God is Love, why did my child die?"After her son tragically dies in a bicycle accident, Shona's perfect life begins to crumble. Her husband, Chad, withdraws and she is left to grieve alone. Unable to cope with the tensions at home, she retreats to a small village where a diverse group of people help her to find the peace and answers she is searching for. This is a story of discovery and understanding; a story that will hopefully give those who grieve and are troubled "the oil of joy for mourning, and the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness." I pray this story touches and enables you to move on in life with a new understanding of God's love and a new spring in your step. Rejoice and know He cares for you. If you read only one novel this year - let this be the one.
