But she also delights in opportunities to share what theBible has to say on a myriad of other subjects too! She is married to Philip. They have three children; two daughters, Cheryl and Joy, now in heaven, and a wonderful son, Paul who is married to Susie, both exceptional musicians.
"Gut-wrenchingly honest, crammed with hope, warm and never preachy, this book is quite wonderful. Grace seeps through every page. Catherine offers vital help for all who navigate their way through pain - that means all of us. If you buy just one book this year, choose this one."
"Catherine Campbell is a living example of the old idea of an Irish 'saint and scholar'. Her words drip like honey from the comb. This book won't just encourage you, it will nurture you and sweeten your spirit. Don't just read the words, eat them and let them change your heart."
"I recommend it to all parents and grandparents, potential ones as well. People who want to serve in churches, men and women. For some it may go into too much detail, but I would say that in the detail comes the understanding."
About
This story of a mother's journey heartache, loss and total reliance on the grace of God is told with remarkable honesty as disappointment turns to devastation, anger and finally to peace and acceptance.
Not just one, but two, of Catherine's three children are born with multiple disabilities. With her pastor husband, they had two daughters who were genetically damaged. Despite faithfully nursing them until they died at the ages of 13 and 10, the girls never developed the ability to recognise their parents.
In time Catherine came to view her family tragedy from a different perspective. In this heartfelt retelling, she shows us the delights as well as the sorrows of her family life; we get to stand Under the Rainbow with her as she experiences the promises of God, which eventually lead to acceptance and freedom.
This book will make you laugh, and it may make you cry, but ultimately it will reveal to you a God who always keeps His promises. More than an autobiography, the book takes a glimpse at issues such as friendship; helping children grieve, and turning pain into gain. It will make you laugh, and it may make you cry, but ultimately it will reveal to you a God who always keeps His promises.
