Flecks of Gold – Solace in the Shadowlands

With empathy and insight drawn from her own experience with cancer, Michèle weaves a comforting and clarifying vision of the nature of pain and God’s enfolding nearness as we endure the unimaginable. Her photography, scattered across the book’s thirty-two pages, draws the reader’s eye to beauty in this intimate exploration and luminous reflection on suffering and faith.

EARLY FEEDBACK FROM READERS:

“Every word in this gorgeous book resonated with me. From Michele’s description of getting her diagnosis to the upheaval and spiritual wrestling that followed. I finished my fist reading with tears in my eyes and fresh hope in my soul. What a gift this book will be to those who ache and those who love them.” Susan Grisby

~~~

“As a pastor for the past three decades, I have journeyed with many through cancer. As I read Michele’s story, I was moved, challenged, and encouraged. Shared with raw honesty and genuine faith, it will be an encouragement to anyone experiencing this dreaded disease—as a patient and as a caregiver.” J. Scott Howington

“The dimension of pain and disappointment runs through this book, but so keenly felt is also the victory and hope as the journey unfolds.” Joy Murphy

PRICING:

The cost of printing and shipping alone is $28, but I am only asking for donations, as I really want to get this book into the hands of those who need it the most. (At $28, I actually lose a bit for every book sold! This is not a money-making venture…)

• • IF you can pay the full amount, thank you.
  • IF you can’t afford it, but would benefit from the book, please order anyway.
  • IF you’re able to donate more than $28, you’ll be covering for those who cannot at this time. (Let’s hear it for random acts of kindness!)

SHIPPING:

• • Free within the United States.
  • Please add $15 for shipping to Canada. (I know—international postal rates are ridiculously high!) If you’re in London, Ontario, I can bring copies to you in April or at a future trip with no extra shipping fee. Just order here and let me know you’d like it hand-delivered.
