      Dedication

      The summer of 2016 held many surprises for me and my family. We were blessed to visit the land of Israel for the first time, and while there, experienced the amazing truth of the Gospels as we stood in the same places Jesus had stood. What a privilege and blessing to see His homeland with our own eyes and to see the same things He saw while on earth.

      After we returned home, I was hit with a severe illness that included a hospitalization and over five weeks in bed. It was during this time that my family rallied to my aid. They offered on-going help, support, love and encouragement. They showed me what it’s like to be brave.

      Along with my family’s support, I was on the receiving end of a mighty out-pouring of love, support and ministry from the greater Body of Christ. It was God’s grace to me at a very needy time in my life. At my lowest moments physically, it was the prayers of my brothers and sisters in Christ that carried me. These friends also showed me what it’s like to be brave.

      Sometimes bravery comes in many different forms. I am grateful for the bravery I witnessed this summer.

      I express my deepest gratitude and affection to:
