MP3 CD Format A child disappears. A foster mother faces an impossible choice. A baby's future hangs in the balance. When Deb Moerke and her husband decided to become foster parents, they never imagined how their lives would change. And never did they imagine their worst nightmare coming true: their five-year-old foster daughter, Hannah, murdered at the hands of her birth mom, Karen. The Moerkes were overwhelmed with horror and grief. And just when they didn't think they could bear any more, Deb received a phone call from Karen in prison. Facing a life sentence for Hannah's murder, she was pregnant. And Karen had an incredible request: Would Deb take her unborn baby in and love it as her own? How would you respond? Could you show God's love to someone who had hurt you and taken away everything you held dear? Murder, Motherhood, and Miraculous Grace is an unbelievable true story of faith, family, and a journey toward seemingly impossible forgiveness. A story that tests the limits of the human heart, it's ultimately a beautiful, life-affirming testament to how unconditional love and relentless obedience can transform even the darkest of nights into mornings of hope. "A terrific story with surprising twists. You will not be able to put it down. It will both break your heart and mend it as you marvel at the power of love to overcome." -- "Ann Spangler, author of Women of the Bible" "Once you start reading this book...you will not be able to put it down." -- "Ruth Graham, author of Prodigals and Those Who Love Them" "What a powerful story that touched my heart deeply, moved me to tears, and enlarged my understanding of what surrender and God's amazing grace in action looks like." -- "Kathe Wunnenberg, president and founder of Hopelifters Unlimited in Phoenix, Arizona" Debra Moerke and her husband, Al, were foster parents for eighteen years, taking in more than 140 children. She has served as the director of women's and children's ministries of the Central Wyoming Rescue Mission, the executive director of a Christian crisis pregnancy and counseling center, a jail guard, and a jail chaplain. She holds a certificate in Christian ministries from Gateway Seminary.
