My new book released: Embraced by God: Facing Chemotherapy with Faith

2 Comments

The cover of my new book!

Just a quick post to say that my collection of essays about facing disease and treatment with faith is about to hit the virtual and physical bookstore shelves.

The publisher’s catalog reads:

Here, after three years of chemotherapy, Steve Givens describes his experiences of pain, sickness, confusion, and sadness, but also his profound sense of renewal and spiritual re-birth. He reveals that he has chosen the way of faith and God because he knows of no other way that brings peace and a reason to go on. This is a beautifully told story of struggle and pain, but ultimately of peace and acceptance, a wonderful resource for all who are facing chronic illness and its treatment.

For more information on the book, see the Faith & Chemo section of my blog or click on the chemotherapy category to read excerpts from the book.

More to come. Peace & healing…

Steve

    Hi Steve, Having been faced with Chemotherapy myself (over 30 years ago) your book title really got my attention. I saw it in my “Living Faith”. I am now mgr. of our church gift shop and think this would be a wonderful addition to our book selection as so many people in our area are faced with cancer and treatments. Would it be possible to purchase your book(s) at a discount, so we can sell them at a reasonable price? Quantity limits? Frt? Our little shop is The St. Thomas Gift Shop. Our Parish is St. Thomas Aquinas, one of three parishes now making up the Notre Dame du Mont Carmel Parish, in Madawaska, Maine. My phone no. is 207-728-4346 if interested. Thank you for your time and may God Bless You. Lee

    Lee:

    I believe wholesale discounts are available for parish shops, just as they are for any bookstore, if ordered directly from the publisher. Here’s a link, but let me know if you have any problems connecting with someone there. They are usually very responsive and ship quickly.

    Thanks for writing!
