by Hope Joy

"Dying to Live: A Call to Joy - The Power of a Testimony" contains the author's testimonial about moving from depression and the desire to commit suicide to finding hope and joy as the result of a life-threatening illness. According to Hope Joy, sometimes it takes being close to death to realize that you're dying to live. The book includes scriptural references, anecdotes about some of the blessings the author received during and throughout her illness, thought-provoking questions for the reader for purposes of self-examination and, finally, a workbook for the reader to share his or her own testimony. The book is designed to show readers that finding and maintaining joy--even in the midst of difficult circumstances--is possible, but it's about making a choice and a commitment.
