Called Home - A True Story of Overcoming Grief After Losing a Child (Paperback)

Death seems so final, but is it really the end? Micah was only nineteen when his Jeep was hurled off the highway only four miles from home and crashed into a cement bridge pillar nearly seventy feet below. Although he died instantly, he was missing for three days. His family and friends were left with the crushing pain of losing a friend, a son, and a good Christian brother. John and Deborah Giles recount the dark days after Micah's death and the very precise decisions they made that saved them from spiraling down into a pit of despair. No 'what ifs' and no 'self-pity.' In Called Home, they teach us all how to come through the most heartbreaking defeats of life and find new joy in God's greater plan. 'This book has been written with a balanced, spiritual tone embracing an eternal perspective while applying a biblical approach to facing the hardest challenges of life.' -Dr. Pat Robertson Founder, The Christian Broadcasting Network 'Called Home sets a tone of hope in God's sovereignty facing the sorrows of life. It is refreshing to have a resource espousing hope when facing a tsunami of overwhelming heartache.' -Governor Mike Huckabee John and Deborah Giles have written a touching and compelling account of a family tragedy and triumph against incredible odds. This is a book of hope. It is a must read. -Jay Sekulow Chief Counsel, American Center for Law & Justice
