Produktbeschreibung

Are you or someone you love facing a diagnosis of cancer? Perhaps you are coping with a chronic illness or facing one of the biggest disappointments of your life. Have you ever wondered how such a trial could change your life for the better? Let Amy show you how God used her cancer journey to teach her life-changing lessons that she otherwise would not have learned. From the darkest of days leading up to her diagnosis through eighteen months of treatment and surgeries, she shares it all. You will be inspired by her resolve to walk by faith, not by sight. This book is filled with nourishment for your soul, hope for your heart, and encouragement to live life to the fullest, with true joy, regardless of your circumstances.

Full of truth, transparency, authenticity, and Scripture, Dangling is a must read for anyone going through lifes difficulties. I loved the book, but I loved watching Amy live out her faithfulness to Jesus more. The lessons she learned through her journey with cancer are real lessons for everyone to learn and live by. As Amy says, God wants what is best for us, not what is easiest.

Mark McKeehan, pastor of Chilhowee Hills Baptist Church

Amy Carr lives out the fact that God is absolutely sovereign and her cancer is not. In the whirlwind of chaos that cancer can cause, Amy knows that she can rest (dangle) in His sovereign grace.

Daniel Ibach MD, oncologist

Autorenporträt

Amy grew up in Strawberry Plains, TN with her parents and older brother. As a child, she was somewhat of a "tomboy" who loved playing basketball and softball. She accepted Jesus as her Savior at the age of eight. Amy enjoys the benefits of having a large extended family who share the values of faith in God, family, and enjoying life. She met her husband, David, at Calvary Baptist Church in Knoxville, TN in January 1989. They were later married there in July 1991. God blessed them with the privilege of finalizing their adoption of both of their children, Kayla and Anthony, in December 1998. Amy enjoys boating on the lakes of east Tennessee, cooking out, movie nights, singing in the choir, "Thursday night dinners" at her parents' house, spontaneous getaways with her husband, and family beach vacations. Amy earned her Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Tennessee in Knoxville. She has worked as a social worker serving youth and their families in the East Tennessee area for twenty eight years. The last twenty years of her career were spent working at Omni Visions, a multi-state placement agency for children and adults. Amy worked in the children's division as a Resource Coordinator providing therapeutic foster care and adoption services for children in state's custody. She was diagnosed with bilateral breast cancer in April 2011 and completed her treatment in September 2012. In May 2015, she was diagnosed with Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia (aka: APL or M3) and is currently undergoing treatment. Thankfully, her prognosis is once again very good. Since retiring from Omni Visions in June 2014, Amy has focused on caring for her family, finalizing and publishing Dangling, and speaking to various women's groups, bible study groups, and churches. Many have found Amy's transparency, humor, and down to earth style of speaking both encouraging and refreshing. Her determination to walk by faith in God and His promises through life's challenges is evident to all who know her. Her uplifting spirit and resolve to fight a good fight of faith from the position of victory, peace and rest inspires others to want to do the same.
