Christina Claypool Caregiving is such a challenging season. May God’s grace surround you, uplift you, and meet every need, Francine. Praying for you and your husband, because your powerful book, “Redeeming Love” transformed my own writing voice into one more honest and transparent. I owe you an immense debt. ❤️🙏📕
