<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>More than one-fifth of US households with children have at least one child with special needs. Raising a child with special needs is spiritually, emotionally, mentally, and physically challenging. Parents of these children need encouragement to restore hope and a passion for God in their lives--but the realities of having to be parent, nurse, therapist, and caregiver make it difficult to find the time or initiative to seek encouragement.</p><p>Packed with encouragement from parents who understand this complicated balancing act, <i>Refresh</i> is designed to provide just what these parents need. The devotional guides parents to spiritual truths that can be applied to the demands they face every day. It offers perspective and hope through the varying stages and phases families experience, from diagnosis to loss and grief.</p><p>Each day's devotional includes a reading from Scripture, as well as stories and testimonies from parents who intimately know the struggle readers face. Their children represent a wide range of special needs, including autism, cerebral palsy, Down syndrome, genetic disorders, chronic illness, and more. Drew and Green show how the truths of God's Word are relevant, regardless of the diagnosis. Their devotional illuminates the unique lessons and perspectives to be gained as a result of raising a child with special needs.</p><p>Insightful and powerful, <i>Refresh</i> will help weary parents grow spiritual roots and turn toward the Light that never fades.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>'I had to pull over on the way home to cry. I had lost the mother-daughter relationship and future I had dreamed about.' When I read these words in the first pages of <i>Refresh</i>, I knew immediately that these authors trod the same path I had. They know the weaknesses of my heart and that God is the source of strength that sustains me. This devotional touches the heart and soul of parents with children who need special care, no matter how extensive that care may be. <i>Refresh</i> is truly refreshment along this trail given to us by God.--Susan K. Stewart, author of Preschool: At What Cost? (6/14/2016 12:00:00 AM)<br><br>"Wherever you are on your special-needs journey, this book will touch your heart. It will give you inspiration as you finish the course God has for your precious family.--Lynda T. Young, author of Hope for Families of Children on the Autistic Spectrum (6/14/2016 12:00:00 AM)<br><br>Parenting a child with special needs is no easy task. I know: I've been there. I recall the day my daughter was born and our lives flipped upside down. I remember the financial uncertainties, the multiple hospitalizations, and the never-ending medical appointments and therapy sessions. But I also remember experiencing God's faithfulness in the midst. And that's where one's focus must rest in order to thrive amidst the challenges. This devotional will lead you to that place. Its words inspire hope in God and trust in his ways and wisdom. Let them lead you to the Father's heart, renew your perspective, and refresh your spirit.--Grace Fox, author of Moving from Fear to Freedom (6/14/2016 12:00:00 AM)<br><br>Parents of children with special needs too often inhabit a dry and thirsty land of isolation and despair.
