WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING...

“Julie Rhodes is the Midge Maisel of evangelicalism: prim, smart, funny, and honest—struggling through faith-shaking hardship with guidance from ancient tradition, and sometimes talking back. Chronic Grace is a recipe book for life, offering nourishment for any reader who faces real challenges and knows that real success takes more than a ring light.”

–Ryan Sanders, Commentary Editor, The Dallas Morning News

“In a world where we expect doctors to figure out and fix everything, Long-Haul COVID has stumped even the best of them. Long COVID means 'fevers, malaise, racing heart, diarrhea, shortness of breath, cough'–and more. What’s it like for a woman, a mother, a wife, a career-woman to endure months of no diagnosis when she knows from bones to skin that something’s there? Chronic illness requires chronic grace to sustain the fragility of life in the whatever-it-takes quest for healing. Julie Rhodes’ soul-open memoir transcends the path of description, though myriads in the world with Long COVID need a companion like Chronic Grace. She transparently probes God, the Bible, her prayer life, and some of the greatest spiritual masters as she probes her own 'quivery, shivery' heart and faith. What’s it like? Julie, in turning her transparent self toward our loving God, provides words for the journey and healing for the heart. Chronic Grace is a textbook of the journey of faith.”

–Rev. Canon Dr. Scot McKnight, Professor of New Testament, Northern Seminary

“Can I be honest? I couldn’t put Julie’s story down. While enjoyable, beautiful, and compelling–it also took my breath away because it held all my fears. As her unexplainable Long Haul COVID symptoms seemed to unendingly stack one upon another, she didn’t give up but leaned in. She did what I hope I would do. She leaned on the cross of Christ and found God’s grace. And she leaned on the saints of old to borrow their truth for herself. Part history lesson, part unfiltered inspiration, and part well-placed humor, Julie leads us through her valley and helps us see that the bright light of Jesus is always there. If you are facing uncertainty or fear or need a good reminder that no matter what comes your way, Jesus will be with you, and he is, indeed, enough–read Chronic Grace.”

–Jodie Niznik, author, Bible teacher, and host of the So Much More podcast
