Hope Endures: A Biography of Faith tells a story of resilience and faith. With her witticisms and unique mannerisms, LeAnn explains how God's faithfulness and the love of her husband and family have carried them through the journey of five cancers, fear, and learning to live with a broken body.
LeAnn McGrath had just given birth to her second baby when she received the earth-shattering diagnosis of colon cancer. But, with no family history, the awful event appeared to be a one-off, a traumatic chapter that their young family could package up, leave behind, and focus on their promising future.
Instead, though, over the following nineteen years, she was diagnosed with cancer four more times, each cancer leaving her with increasing limitations to where she now lives with the ramifications of each one every day. In her words, she spends many days riding the proverbial struggle bus.
Through it all, LeAnn has maintained her faith, clinging to the promise that God is the anchor of her soul. Instead of negativity, LeAnn uses her knowledge to encourage others; despite her lack of resolution, she shares the ins and outs of what has sustained their family along this challenging journey.
In LeAnn's story, readers will find hope, gratitude, encouragement, and the assurance that God sees, knows, and understands our struggles and trials. The book is an invitation to view life's trials in the context of God's love, providing enduring hope.
