In the Blink of an Eye: Forgiveness in Black and White

by Jt Clark, Terri Lee Clark

In the blink of an eye, tragedy can change lives without
warning. So was the case one warm August evening in rural
southwest Virginia, when an unspeakable accident claimed the lives
of Bobby and Pam Clark. But sometimes the life you live is carried
on even after you die, as what happens next is an amazing story of
forgiveness and healing in the wake of tragedy.
JT Clark, Bobby's brother, recounts the details on these pages of
loss, forgiveness, and hope that reaches epic proportions - a true,
modern-day account of what can happen when the extraordinary
power of God begins moving in ordinary people.
Tragic pain and adversity are familiar in various forms to us all,
and if hurt has its way, this story never gets told. But from the
depths of hope springs a message of true forgiveness that will
change your view of what can happen when God moves, replacing
hurt and resentment with healing and freedom!

I remember reading in the local newspaper about the accident that took the lives of Bobby and Pam Clark and then of the subsequent trial. To be able to take a glimpse behind the veil and learn more about the individuals and families involved is amazing. As I went on this journey with the Clarks through this book, I was struck over and over again with the truth of what God can do with a simple act of obedience. You may debate whether obedience is a simple act or not. Describe it however you will but it all comes down to listening and doing. JT Clark sensed God speaking on various occasions and had to make choices. Just like most people who are seeking to live for God, he could go the other way just as he initially did on the day of the trial, or he could go where God was leading as he ultimately did that day. Following the leading of God oftentimes is not easy, but the greatest rewards come when we do. I love the example he and his wife set for many who have followed their story as they got involved in the church pastored by the man who accidentally ran over his brother and sister-in-law. The subtitle, Forgiveness in Black and White, packs a powerful message for the times in which we live. As the story unfolded, I kept wondering how many lives have been impacted positively for all eternity that may never have been touched otherwise. The lessons in this book are greatly needed by many in our churches today.

Terri Clark and J.T. Clark are two of my favorite Author's. You guys keep doing what you're doing so this world will become a better place. Love, love, love your story!!

It's not about you - it's all about God and his son, Our Lord Jesus Christ & Savior!! Let none of us ever forget that. Always Praise His Name!!

This is the story of one man's unexpected journey of forgiveness, friendships, and undying faith. I would say it consists of miracles and unexplained coincidences or could they be God planned instances? Read and you decide! I think God intervened and continues to work in these lives!!
