New Book Confronts Faith Amid Life’s Deepest Questions: Healing or Homecoming? Finding God When Life Is in the Balance – Will be Free to Download Tomorrow, October 15, 2024

FAITH NEWS SERVICE – United States—Monday, October 14, 2024

How do you hold on to faith when you’re staring down life’s greatest heartache? Can you still believe in a good and sovereign God when healing doesn’t come? In “Healing or Homecoming? Finding God When Life Is in the Balance,” Cheryl Liberatore invites readers into an emotional, thought-provoking journey through the parallel stories of her husband John and daughter Kara—both diagnosed with aggressive, terminal cancer. As one survives and the other passes away, Cheryl’s story wrestles with the question: How do we reconcile different outcomes under the same God?

Told with unflinching honesty and unwavering faith, “Healing or Homecoming” is more than a personal narrative—it’s a powerful exploration of life’s most difficult questions:

• Where is God in the midst of suffering?
• Why does one person experience miraculous healing while another doesn’t?
• Does God have a divine plan even in the face of death?
• Can there be hope and purpose beyond devastating loss?

Liberatore draws readers into her family’s experience, allowing them to walk through both miraculous healing and heartbreaking loss. As she reflects on the starkly different outcomes, Cheryl gently leads readers to a deeper understanding of God’s faithfulness, not dependent on circumstance but anchored in His eternal purposes.

In an era where faith is often measured by tangible outcomes, “Healing or Homecoming” dares to challenge the notion that God’s goodness depends on whether we receive the answer we desire. It boldly declares that whether we experience healing on earth or “homecoming” in heaven, God is present, sovereign, and deeply involved in our lives.

Cheryl Liberatore’s, “Healing or Homecoming?” will be free and available for download on Amazon for 5 days, Tuesday, October 15 through October 19, 2024. “Healing or Homecoming?” is rated 5 stars by those who purchased and reviewed the book. Here’s what just a couple of the reviewers have said:
