Stories from the River of Mercy: Broken Dreams and Unexpected Grace

Some experiences change your life. Some relationships do, too. As Sheila Walsh walked with her mother-in-law through her last moments, the two women learned lessons of life-ones that had previously eluded them. These memories have changed Sheila's relationship with Christ and her perspective forever. And they become a blessed chronicle that will change readers' lives as they, too, are plunged into God's river of mercy.

A Journey Worth Taking!

This book made me laugh (I loved the author's "mental notes") and it made me cry (little Christian's teeth marks)! It opened my eyes to realize that God's grace and mercy are gifts worth sharing with all of my friends and acquaintances, and gifts not to be taken for granted. This book shows how God is with us in every rise and every fall in our lives, and how He is beside us even when we don't realize it. Thank you Sheila for a great book! (please note: I read it straight through...I just couldn't put it down!)

Deeply touched.

My wife recommended that I read this book, stating that she thought every one should. I was hesitant at first, but after laughing and then crying my way through it, I believe she's right. Everyone should. I was deeply touched and reminded again of the importance of all the relationships around me, not just the one's that make me feel good. Of the need to look below the surface to find the true person. Thanks to God for using Eleanor and Sheila to remind me of what is really important in life - others.
