Debut author Amanda Mason has written a moving account of a family torn by grief after an accident that leaves the youngest son with a traumatic brain injury.
I’m sure I had never considered what it would be like to have a brain injury; looking out at the world and seeing and hearing what is going on, yet unable to participate. Unable to communicate. As I read about Jill working with Ben, trying to communicate with him, I was deeply touched and had a glimmer of what it might be like.
The Mitchell family is broken, and while John Mitchell has been doing his utmost to hold it together, his best efforts have not been enough. The spiritual journey he undergoes to learn to lean on God and discover he has been forgiven is poignant.
Jill’s broken family has caused her grief yet her faith remained strong and was a testimony to those around her. I was encouraged by seeing how even through her own pain she shone in such a way that touched others.
If you enjoy Christian fiction of a more serious nature, I encourage you to give A Mountain Worth Moving a try. I am looking forward to reading more books from this author.
