*Available now!* Surviving Chronic Illness: Grace in the Flames

This is a quirky, brutally honest, yet hopeful look at life with illness, and how everything from work to sanity to faith can be impacted by the flames of prolonged sickness. Steph tells her own story of surviving Lupus (known as ‘the great chameleon’) and looks for creative and hopeful ways of responding to illness that never takes a day off. Steph ultimately encourages us to hold on to Jesus, relying on the grace that awaits us in the midst of the inferno of illness.

This book is the third in Steph Penny’s Survival series, which you can order here. It follows Surviving Childlessness and Surviving Singledom. All her books address the too-hard-basket questions with quirky humour and hope.

Steph is Australian and passionate about writing and loves talking to people about hard topics like suffering, chronic illness, childlessness, singledom and how to survive as a Christian in this world. She is also passionate about cats, chocolate, fantasy and sci-fi stories, bargain shopping and the grace that pours from Christ like a torrent into our lives.

Charlie from MRKH Connect had the pleasure to meet with Steph on a podcast focusing on childlessness in 2023 where they connected and stayed in touch. Charlie had the pleasure to read this book ahead of release and whilst MRKH Connect are not endorsing this book we do believe it will be of interest to many of our community, and beyond!
