**A child disappears ... a foster mom 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.

Murder, Motherhood, and Miraculous Grace: A True Story$27.99
A powerful story about forgiveness and surrendering to God's will and leading. It was encouraging to read about how God worked in this situation and was always there even when at times it would've appeared hopeless. Clearly demonstrates we just have to be willing and obedient we don't need to have all the answers before we take the first steps. It was also beautiful to see how they sowed the seeds of Jesus and his love into all the children that came into their home. And somehow managed to walked that very thin, difficult line of respecting the parents and praying for them while not condoning what they did.

Murder, Motherhood, and Miraculous Grace: A True Story
Reads like fiction, captivating. Powerful story of surrender to God in all areas of life. Prayer is a central theme. Hard topic of child abuse will be upsetting. Be ready to get teary. Highly recommended!
