The Life We Never Expected Book Review

The Life We Never Expected
Authors:  Andrew and Rachel Wilson
Publisher:  Crossway
Pages:  160
Audience:  Adults
Genre:  Parenting

Andrew and Rachel Wilson are parents of two autistic children, Anna and Zeke.  In this inspiring book, Andrew and Rachel speak about the life they have with their children and the lessons having two autistic children have taught them and the struggles they have had to weather through.  Andrew and Rachel write honestly about their feelings throughout their journey with their children.  The encouraging and hopeful message that Andrew and Rachel deliver in this book is not only a message for parents of special needs children but also is a widespread message for individuals.  There were two lessons that truly resonated with me:  the first is to ‘fight for our joy’ and the second is a reminder that ‘God redeems all things.’  Thank you to Andrew and Rachel for a truly inspirational and encouraging read.

I would recommend this book to parents and individuals.  This book will communicate hope and encouragement for the journey ahead.

Unashamed

Unashamed:
Healing Our Brokenness and Finding Freedom from Shame

Author:  Heather Davis Nelson
Publisher:  Crossway
Pages:  192
Audience:  Women
Genre:  Christian Living

Heather Davis Nelson writes of a topic that haunts many women:  shame.  Mrs. Nelson speaks about the many forms in which shame appears; such as in our relationships, body image, and sin to name a few.  She speaks of how shame traps us in condemnation, unforgiveness, and punishing ourselves.  She speaks from her own experiences of feeling shame, which maker her very relatable.  Mrs. Nelson imparts the tools to letting go of shame and clarifies the difference between shame and guilt.

I would strongly recommend this book to every woman.  Shame is such a widespread feeling that impacts so strongly and I feel that Mrs. Nelson’s words of advice, tools to overcoming shame, and message that Jesus Christ is our healer are very important and helpful for women today.
