Journey of Grace: Walking with Christ through Calling, Loss, and Legacy In this deeply personal collection, Patrick Shay Beard brings together three powerful works— Slowly by Slowly , Here After , and The Life You Leave Behind —into one continuous story of calling, loss, renewal, and legacy. Each book marks a chapter in a larger journey: Slowly by Slowly tells how God reshaped a calling through seasons of loss and surrender. - Here After reveals how crisis and survival opened new doors of compassion and grace. - The Life You Leave Behind looks forward, asking what it truly means to build a legacy that points others to Christ. Taken together, these stories remind us that life is not defined by a single moment but by the faithful hand of God weaving all our moments together. Vocations may change, suffering may surprise us, and renewal may come in unexpected ways—but in every season, Christ remains faithful. Journey of Grace is a testimony to the God who “works all things together for the good of those who love Him and are called according to His purpose.” It’s a story of surrender, endurance, and hope—an invitation to see your own journey as part of His greater plan of grace.
