Publisher's summary

Cancer is a short word for something that has such a devastating impact. Why would God allow it to strike Sylvia Bryan? And why now, of all times, when her mission work back in Nicaragua is bearing such fruit and beset by such needs? For Sylvia, the ravages of surgery and chemotherapy are just part of the struggle. There are the questions, the emotional upheaval - and through it all, one deep desire: that God will use her illness, and that she will glorify him through it.

As the friends of Cedar Circle lend their love and support to Sylvia and her husband, God is at work, knitting hearts, shaping and changing lives, and, out of this season of pain and sorrow, drawing forth blessings that are unforeseen, joyous, and enduring.

Some of God's greatest gifts come in life's darkest wrappings. Sylvia Bryan has known this truth for years. But she never anticipated the cost she is about to bear in walking it out. Concerned over her increasing fatigue, Sylvia's husband, Harry, has sent her home from their mission work in Nicaragua to undergo testing. The diagnosis is numbing: cancer - a stark, terrifying word that will utterly reshape the trajectory of Sylvia's life. How could Sylvia have breast cancer? She struggles with why God would allow such a thing now, at the most fruitful time of her life. The children at the orphanage in Leon need her. A church in the village needs renovating after the recent hurricane. Her beloved husband depends on her. And there are scores of people, young and old, who need to hear about Jesus and learn about his love through Sylvia's hugs, her smile, her care, compassion, and laughter.

You can't put it down!!

This is the fourth book in a series, but you don't have to start at the beginning.
You'll need many kleenexs! You'll fall in love with all the characters! All I hate is that there isn't a book 5!!

Truth for today.

I listened to the to this series years ago but wanted to hear it again. It is so down to earth and truthful just like today. The real problems, challenges hurts are in our every day lives just like in the series. I cannot pick one person that I liked more than the other because it was a community of friends that depended on each other and needed each other especially in the hardest of times. I wish more people would listen to or read all four books in the series. Two

Inspiring story

Where does Season of Blessing rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

My favorite

Who was your favorite character and why?

Sylvia- her faith in her struggle with cancer

What does Kathy Garver bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Hearing a story just seems to bring it to life more than reading it

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When Sylvia used Jesus' death to bring peace about our questions in death

Any additional comments?

For those going through cancer, either themselves or a family member, this is an encouraging book
