The Storm That Grew My Faith" takes you on a roller coaster ride of emotions. The story of this family and Malachi's fight to become a strong healthy boy is an inspiration in Christian faith. The trials and tribulations will truly illustrate the power of God and the importance of faith in your life. As an adopted family member I have witnessed, with my own eyes, the power of God and the importance of a daily walk with Jesus. Before I met the Goldens, I was already saved by God's grace. However, I was not walking the path I knew I needed to be walking. We first met at the funeral of my brother and absolute best friend Billy and we immediately clicked. I have been able to watch little Malachi grow up into a firecracker of a kid and to see how quickly he has come so far is a true testament to the awesome powerof God. This book illustrates that, even where you are in the darkest place you've ever been in your life, the light that is your faith in Christ will guide you out of that darkness. Living through this with them and physically seeing the true power of faith has shown me that NOTHING is more important than walking in God's word. Faith WILL bring you out of the darkness and into the light.-Anthony JohnsonA story of struggle, pain, trials, and, ultimately, strength. Mr. Golden's experience with his trials gives a shining example of the tribulations and hardships that God tests our faith with. This is a true story of one man's test of faith, and the blessings and miracles that are bestowed to those who believe whole-heartedly. This story should shine as a reminder of God's will, and remind us that, although we may not understand why things are happening, God has a plan for everything. And we should trust in God and allow his will to flow through us. If you do not believe in miracles, I urge you to pick up this book and take to heart the many miracles instilled in its truth.-C. McCann

New York Times bestseller How do you hold on to hope when you don’t get the ending you asked for? When Katie Davis Majors moved to Uganda, accidentally founded a booming organization, and later became the mother of thirteen girls through the miracle of adoption, she determined to weave her life together with the people she desired to serve. But joy often gave way to sorrow as she invested her heart fully in walking alongside people in the grip of poverty, addiction, desperation, and disease. After unexpected tragedy shook her family, for the first time Katie began to wonder, Is God really good? Does He really love us? When she turned to Him with her questions, God spoke truth to her heart and drew her even deeper into relationship with Him. Daring to Hope is an invitation to cling to the God of the impossible—the God who whispers His love to us in the quiet, in the mundane, when our prayers are not answered the way we want or the miracle doesn’t come. It’s about a mother discovering the extraordinary strength it takes to be ordinary. It’s about choosing faith no matter the circumstance and about encountering God’s goodness in the least expected places. Though your heartaches and dreams may take a different shape, you will find your own questions echoed in these pages. You’ll be reminded of the gifts of joy in the midst of sorrow. And you’ll hear God’s whisper: Hold on to hope. I will meet you here.
