Surprised by Grace and 101 Moments of Prayer

Book Description

Renowned writer Elizabeth “Tib” Sherrill shares her own faith journey at last!  Embrace this page-turner and see God’s work in your life every day.

Tib has written for Guideposts magazine for over sixty years, contributed to Daily Guideposts for over twenty-five, and coauthored the best-selling, inspirational adventures of all time with her husband, John, including: The Hiding Place, The Cross and the Switchblade, and God’s Smuggler. Yet, Tib’s most powerful story ever is this beautifully written, exhilarating memoir.

In it, you’ll discover how God’s love transformed her life from one of great struggle to one with a clear direction and find inspiration, hope and strength for your own journey.

Enjoy touching stories about Tib’s family and close relationships, from her unhappy childhood to John’s surprising marriage proposal. Meet her lifelong friend Mea, and  her dear father-in-law who was able to see her for the complex person she was even though he was blind. Travel with her to fascinating places across the United States and Europe. And find out how she overcame her poor self-image after a stunning encounter with her Creator.

Elizabeth Sherrill’s superb storytelling brings you into every scene, making you laugh and cry many times over. You’ll be reminded that God intends hope and freedom for you. You’ll also find wonderful insight and encouragement in the uplifting foreword by Guideposts Editor-in-Chief Edward Grinnan and in the inspirational “Conversation Starters,” particularly useful for women’s Bible studies, book clubs, or home groups.

Surprised by Grace will help you understand more deeply how to completely trust God in the toughest times of your life, how to recognize your dependence on Him, and how to allow Him to light your way.

Editorial Reviews

“The master ghostwriter steps from the shadows at last!” —Philip Yancey, best-selling Christian author

“Ever since I worked with Elizabeth Sherrill on the writing of God’s Smuggler, I’ve longed for her to tell her own story. She has done it at last—a modern Pilgrim’s Progress that I believe will become an inspirational classic.” —Brother Andrew

“As Elizabeth walked me through her life’s path, my heart was drawn closer to her Jesus and her heaven, which are mine too. I urge you to walk with one who is a master painter with words, into a reality more real than the earth itself.” —Loren Cunningham, Youth with a Mission Founder
