Story Behind the Book

Phil Callaway wrote this book after a five-year journey he and his wife embarked upon when she began having seizures. He discovered that when life throws you curve balls, juices lemons in your eyes, scrunches you in a knuckle sandwichâ‚¬Â¦the last thing you want to do is laugh. And at the moment we realize that life can just plain stink, â‚¬Å“this book helps us know where to go from that point,â‚¬Â he says. Celebrities like Dave Dravecky, Barbara Johnson, Gloria Gaither, and Joni Eareckson Tada have endorsed Callawayâ‚¬s positive approach to trials. â‚¬Å“Everything Phil Callaway writes is full of life because heâ‚¬s discovered a fabulous secret: The joy of Christ doesnâ‚¬t go away, even when life is a mess,â‚¬Â says evangelist Luis Palau.
