| White Lilies in Autumn
| | Dustin W. Bradshaw
| As young newlyweds, Dustin and Hiva have a baby die unexpectedly. The event unleashes a torrent of painful challenges that crash relentlessly into their lives, one wave after another. Looking into his past for the capacity to cope, Dustin sees how life's journey has taught him many important lessons with the same theme--never lose hope! Some may attribute such happenings to 'bad luck', while others may blame 'bad choices'; as Dustin discovers, however, facing pain, shock, and death is just life. The serenity of his simple country life is shattered at age ten, following an accident that threatens the use of a limb--and that was only the beginning. With tender honesty, WHITE LILIES IN AUTUMN, follows Dustin through life as he grapples with trials that threaten his ideals and expectations of life. He and his family are forced to confront thorny issues--such as death, depression, infertility, abuse, and suicide--that "good religious people" usually keep hidden from society. All of these experiences prepare Dustin because, unknown to him, at some point in his future, he will have to choose when another beloved family member will die. More than ever, he needs strength to overcome.
