{"product_id":"9781527110137","title":"Broken Children, Sovereign God, Rejoicing in God’s Goodness Amidst Childhood Mental Health Struggles","description":"\u003cp\u003eA testimony to the sufficiency of God in the gruelling day–to–day reality of raising a child with a mental health disorder. Mental health disorders have become increasingly prevalent, especially in children and teenagers. Suicide is the 3rd highest cause of death in fifteen– to nineteen–year–olds around the world. This effect of the Fall has left thousands of families in despair, confusion, and impotent desperation. Leslie Schmucker knows this all too well. Writing to encourage other parents who find themselves in a similar situation, she explores different aspects of her and her family’s experience with their daughter, Jackie. Through violence and mayhem, joy and hope, intense isolation, shame and confusion, Leslie’s honest testimony to the goodness of God is humbling. Leslie’s testimony is split into four sections:\u003cbr\u003e\n•\tComfort from the God who Knows\u003cbr\u003e\n•\tSufficiency in the Fallout\u003cbr\u003e\n•\tGuidance in the Storm\u003cbr\u003e\n•\tHope for the Journey  \u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cbr\u003e\nLife in our post–Fall world is not always neat, not every story looks like a success, but Leslie shows us how the gospel is for every situation, the love of God is for everyone, and He can be trusted to write our stories. Whether you are raising a child with a mental health disorder or not, this book will challenge your comfortable Christianity and show you a love beyond measure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePublisher: Christian Focus\u003cbr\u003e\nType: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\nISBN: 9781527110137\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e______________\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLeslie Schmucker worked for over a decade with mentally ill children.
