“The story of Michael and Amanda’s battle with cancer is testament to the power of faith and love. In her book, On the Shores of Grief, Amanda gives us a beautifully written reminder that even in our most challenging and painful moments, we can find peace, hope, and the strength to keep going through God’s presence.”

“Amanda’s writing and vulnerability will help you feel seen in your pain, and give you permission to experience the full spectrum of emotions that come with any of life’s most challenging circumstances. If you find yourself spending too much of your time hiding in the dark, this book is a beautiful first step back into the light.”

“The author has graciously given the reader passage into her mind in the aftermath of losing her husband and an unspeakably young-age. The wisdom shared by the author is timeless, and serves as a lampost for those unable to see light outside of darkness in the aftermath of the unthinkable. The author has brilliantly crafted this memoir to demonstrate how grief has the power to foster growth, healing, rebirth and new awakenings. The tandem mix of story, scripture and prose brings to life the remarkable way God can will meet you in the pit of despair, when all hope seems lost, when you are searching for meaning amongst missing pieces. On the Shores of Grief is literature that will leave you feeling lost at sea in parts, washed up on shore in others, but hopeful and compassionate throughout. This is a beautiful and heartfelt read and is a must for all those who have struggled or are struggling to with grief across any area of life. Thank you, Amanda for your bravery, vulnerability and for using your gift of words to serve others!” - Amazon Customer

“This book is epic. I literally read it in a few hours because it’s so enthralling. Amanda is a friend of mine who I’ve had the HONOR of know and now admiring from a far. Every single page is simply a piece of art. Her story of coming closer to God and His power in her life through some of her darkest moments leaves the reader hanging onto every word. This book reminds you of the power and beauty we have within us as humans but also of our flaws, errors and vulnerabilities. Her words and imagery of her emotions is devastatingly beautiful. After reading this book, I feel the desire to connect more with God because of how he has moved in her and Michaels life. THANK YOU AMANDA FOR SHARING THIS MASTERPIECE. It takes a lot of courage and vulnerability- which is what our world needs more of. You are a child of God and I can’t wait to continue witnessing the miracles he helps navigate and manifest in your life. “ - Amazon Customer
