I have recently had the opportunity to dive into a book designed to help heal and restore all your broken pieces. This book will help you and comfort you in your grief, heartbreak or loss. And it reassures us that we can always count on God and His love for us in times of trial and heartache. If you have been in a rut, weather it be from experiencing loss or sorrow, if you have had situations in your life that require forgiveness but you are struggling with unforgiveness , or you just feel like you need a renewed sense of self and God’s touch, this book is for you! No matter what you are going through, you NEED this book. You might be on the mountain top right now and life is coasting along great! No sorrows, pain or troubles… that is Greaat! BUT, you won’t always be on top of that mountain. Life is full of mountains but unfortunately it is also full of the valleys. We will all spend our fair share of time down in the valleys where we will need to grab ahold of Jesus to get out of it. And when that time comes, you can dive into this book for encouragement and restoration. Get your copy today in preparation for those times in the valleys! Together as we read this book, we can learn to restore and reconnect life’s broken pieces and let God make it into something BEAUTIFUL!
From a young age to adulthood, author Cindy Brinker Simmons has experienced unexpected loss and grief. She has remained faith-filled through it, sharing, “I have profound and heartfelt gratitude toward God who rescued me. He picked up all the broken pieces and restored me to a place of great peace, purpose, and joy. My heart carries the agonizing ache for those who still reside in painful, lonely, and despairing places.”
Cindy lost her 34-year-old mother, the late great tennis champion Maureen “Little Mo” Connolly Brinker, to cancer when Cindy was twelve. Her mother was ranked number one in the world in 1952-54. Then 36 years later, Cindy lost her husband Bob to a rare cancer diagnosis
In Restored: Reconnecting Life's Broken Pieces (Redemption Press, March 2024), Cindy authentically and wittingly wrestles with the reality of when your world has been rocked and provides readers fresh hope to move forward in victory. Says Cindy, “Even in life’s tough and messy journeys, Restored points to God’s purpose and plan uniquely created for each person that is meant to be shared with a watching world.”
She believes that no one is immune from the painful bumps and bruises of daily living. She explains, “Sometimes it is really hard to take the first step when life weighs too much. Restored will reinvigorate the spirit of those who need to be refreshed and strengthened. It will motivate those who need life breathed back into them. Every life has a plan and a purpose. My hope is that through Restored, readers will make an important discovery: God is always present.”
Cindy shares that:
- God’s consistent love and goodness can always be trusted.
- Trials can be treasures in disguise and can radically change lives.
- Life is relational and being in a healthy, trusted, and supportive community ushers in hope, encouragement, and a sense of belonging.
- The power of forgiveness reconciles relationships.
- Serving and comforting others is an act of worship to God, modeling His lavish love, mercy, and kindness for humanity.
