Book excerpt: Come on a journey with Esther and her family and friends ... ordinary people learning what it means to follow Jesus in tough times. Award winning, Australian, contemporary Christian fiction. Book 1 – Grace in Strange Disguise Instead of a wedding, Esther is facing radical surgery and chemotherapy. Where is God when she needs him most? Esther is a people pleaser. It’s never been a major problem because she’s just gone with the flow. Her father has always preached, “Follow Jesus and you’ll be blessed.” And up until age twenty-eight, Esther has never had any reason to doubt it. Will she appease her father? Or will she listen to the words of a stranger who challenges everything she believes? Book 2 – Grace in the Shadows Two women. One collision course with truth. Physiotherapist Esther has survived cancer, but wounds within her family remain unhealed. Is her revived faith the reason for the rift or could a simmering secret be the root cause? Cosmetics consultant Rachel buried her past – and her father’s God – but the past refuses to stay buried. Will she continue to run or is confronting her pain the way to freedom? Can God’s grace shine even in the darkest of shadows? Book 3 – Grace in Deep Waters When is a marriage over? When do you stand and fight? William Macdonald is at the pinnacle of his career. Pastor of a growing megachurch and host of a successful national radio programme. Clever and respected, he’s a man with everything, including a secret. His wife has left him and he can’t risk anyone finding out. Blanche Macdonald is struggling. Her once rock-solid marriage is showing cracks. She promised to love her husband for better or for worse, but does loving always mean staying? Blanche desires to put God first. Not William. Not her daughter. Not herself.
