Patrick Thyne (PatrickThyne) | 4 comments Hello everyone and happy new year. I'm Patrick, and it's nice to meet all of you.

I've written a book called The Awful Grace of God which lays out the crisis and journey of faith my family and I took following the death of our son, Jesse, in an automobile accident while serving in the Peace Corps in Guinea, Africa 15 years ago. Writing the book was a tremendous help in getting though the most difficult time of our lives - I hope it may help others wrestling with their own grief / faith challenges.

I'm a voracious reader, some of my favorite works are noted in my profile.

New to Goodreads (and this group) - looking forward to learning together with this community.

Pamela Christian | 11 comments No doubt your book will help many people struggling with grief and how it impacts our faith. For different reasons I write and minister on the same topics. Perhaps you'd be blessed to read my "Faith to Live By" book series. The first two books are published at this point. However the first book "Examine Your Faith! Finding Truth in a World of Lies" is very soon to be republished under a different imprint with some revisions. The second book is "Renew Your Hope! Remedy for Personal Breakthroughs" I have three books now I'm to read to provide review. I offer to read yours to post review too so long as you know it will be a while.

Patrick Thyne (PatrickThyne) | 4 comments Hi Pamela, thanks so much for your post. It's been a busy few weeks but I've finally made it back here to GR.

Like you, I've got a reading list queued up but as soon as we can both make some headway, let's touch base again here and work out the details of the swap.

I'm putting my book out for free on Kindle (hard copy discounted via CreateSpace) starting tomorrow, through the end of the month in honor of the anniversary of my son's death. I'll come back here and post a link so you can get your copy during the giveaway.

Talk soon here, until then be well.

Pamela Christian | 11 comments Thanks - I appreciate it.

I didn't think Create Space manufactures hard copies???

Blessings,

Pam

Patrick Thyne (PatrickThyne) | 4 comments Thank you as well.

They do! They do a very nice job at them, as well.

Here are those details I promised:

You can get the Kindle version (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00IAVH4Z0) for free through the end of this month or if you prefer a physical copy, a deep discount on the paperback version (visit https://www.createspace.com/4411728 to get your copy for just $4.59 by using code NN2Y2MHM in checkout).

Please feel free to share this info with whomever you think might benefit from it.

Be well - enjoy your weekend!
