from the Ashes: Hope in Jesus for Bereaved Parents, ($29.99, paperback,

author’s journey through the grief that followed the loss of her son. An
intimate portrait of Gibbs’ experiences, her book delves into the pain of not
only the loss of her twenty-year-old son, but also the grief that has come from
pregnancy loss, fertility issues, abuse, and rape.
“It
is my hope that by sharing my testimony of God’s humbling redemption, along
with what He has revealed to me along the way, it will enable the reader to
embrace that joy that is set before them, which Jesus Himself embraced,” states the author. “It is my
desire that God be glorified in all things.”
Jude
Gibbs is an ordained minister who worked for nearly a decade as a counselor for
victims of abuse, rape, and incest. She acted as a board member of a Rape
Crisis Center in a major city for three years. Her personal experience as a
survivor of abuse and the mother of a survivor gives her a unique perspective.
Her four pregnancy losses, as well as the loss of her son, have inspired her to
share God’s healing power.
