Dying to Live: A Spiritual Memoir - Paperback

by Liza Piatt (Author)

Living and Dying, Heartache and Joy: A Search for Love and Purpose in Life... This compelling account of a woman's spiritual journey begins on a beach in Southern California in the 1950s and stretches to the Lakes Region of New Hampshire, where the author's mother died in 2004. The memoir is penned through the lens of Liza's relationship with-and the life and death of-each of her parents and her parents-in-law, and as she looks back on the lifelong pathway that God set before her, she openly discusses how prone she was to miss the point of her Christian faith. In the final chapters of Dying to Live, the author is also faced with the tragic loss of a friend and two life-threatening trials in her husband's life. What eventually emerges is a realization that life is a work in progress, and Liza learns what it means to follow Christ, to put her trust in Him, and to die to self and live for Him. Dying to Live is an engaging read, a book of hope and spiritual grace that will leave you examining your own interior life and Christian faith.
