Blurb

A family is in tatters. Still, God is in control.

While his two daughters Rachel and Amy struggle for freedom from the expectations of a pastor’s family, Arthur Grill is forced to step down from his position as senior pastor at Hope Is Here Church. Then Rose, Arthur’s wife and the family’s pillar of support, is crushed when her health rapidly declines under the stress of so much upheaval. Each of the girl’s search for freedom in their own ways. Anxiety and fear, stalking them as they strain against their upbringing. When the family pushes against one another and the help from their friends, their lives are rocked by tragedy in the form of a missing daughter.

Will the Grills accept help from each other, friends, and God? Or will they break and lose hope of healing?
