An elderly nursing home resident-an inveterate busybody. A mentally challenged man whose mama has taught him self-reliance. An African American woman who knows prejudice. A widower with a young son. A newborn child.... God uses all these people to teach a grieving Kit that the peace of Christ is sometimes found where you least expect it. When Kit Whitmore's husband slips into a coma following a car crash, she believes life can't get any worse, that there's not enough air in the world to keep on breathing. But she's wrong. Life can get worse, as she finds out to her dismay when she learns of his infidelity. Seeking solace for her loss and betrayal, she turns to a man who worms his way into her life. Pressuring Kit to marry him while methodically alienating her from her family and friends, he shows her what real suffocation is. But is it too late? Is marriage to him a destiny she cannot escape? The story of one woman's journey through the darkest hours of her life as she comes face-to-face with an emotional abuser, Godsend explores how God uses ordinary people and sometimes unorthodox circumstances to reveal His grace. A companion study guide to Godsend is available to facilitate private reflection and group discussion of the sensitive and complex issues introduced in Godsend. Topics such as fear, hurt, loneliness, forgiveness, and twenty other topics are covered. Written by Patricia Brevard, the study guide is available from Amazon.com and other retail outlets.
