Moments for Couples Who Long for Children

by Ginger Garrett, Steve Arterburn

Most couples don't think about fertility--that is, until they decide to start a family but encounter unexpected difficulty with conceiving. Women in particular may feel that their bodies have let them down or conclude that God has somehow cheated them. Is this true? Does God still care? Infertility can be a scary, intimidating word. Author Ginger Garrett knows this from experience. By looking at what the Bible says about the issue, offering sample prayers and pointing out positive steps couples can take as they search for answers, she gently leads people to a new sense of hope in God's compassion. Most important, they will come to know that through it all, God always cares.

I run a RESOLVE support group for women and couples working through infertility issues and this by far is my favorite book to reference and hand out to others to read. I cried when reading the first page because i felt like finally someone else understood me! Some have absolutely loved it and taken much comfort from it and others simply thought it was "ok." It depends on your personal faith and healing process. I highly recommend it.

This book was very impactful for me - almost life-changing. So many amazing insights that have really lifted me and given me more faith. I truly believe God inspired the author to write these words.
