Book Description: Darren and Heather Turner share a passion for serving God, family, and country. When Darren is deployed to Iraq as an army chaplain, Heather vows to serve military families back home as she cares for the couple’s three young children.
Darren knows he’s overseas to support the troops in their suffering as their chaplain. What he doesn’t know is how he will get through his own dark moments. And as communication from Darren dwindles, Heather wonders what is happening in her husband’s heart. Meanwhile, she’s growing weary in the day-to-day life of a military base—each child’s milestone Darren will never see, each month waiting for orders, each late-night knock on the door.
When Darren returns, he is no longer the husband Heather once knew. She is no longer the woman Darren wed. And so it’s at home that the Turners face their biggest battle: to save their marriage.
My Thoughts: This is quite an interesting story.
Not being a military family it's a little hard to relate to some of the "things" but being a human and being married makes it easy to see how difficult it must be to walk this road.
It's also a good read to help us pray for and backup our military families.
This story is a lot about overcoming all odds to save a family, to save a marriage.
A good story about love, God's grace and overcoming.
Well written.
