Critically Loved

As we face this journey called life, we can’t anticipate what faces us. As TyiaLynn discovered, and shares with us here, God is with us every step of the way, encouraging, strengthening, carrying, and guiding.

–Kyle Idleman, teaching pastor and best-selling author of Not a Fan

Nothing can be more heartbreaking for a parent than watching their child contend with a serious, chronic disease. TyiaLynn Mikels knows about this first hand having raised her seventeen-year-old through years of pain and suffering. Yet what she learned along the way taught her much about faith and trusting God and led her to “look at terrible circumstances as opportunities. To see value in the pain.” I think you will be blessed as TyiaLynn shares this inspirational story with you.

–Bob Russell, author and speaker with Bob Russell Ministries

TyiaLynn shares her story in this study so others can be encouraged to walk with God in their valleys. You do not need to be the parent of a child with a critical or chronic illness to benefit from this study. It has lessons each of us can learn from. Take time to digest each day, and be blessed.

–Bruce Zoeller, President at The Christian Advantage

I appreciate how vulnerable TyiaLynn was with this study. It’s such a reminder how many moms out there experience the daily struggle of caring for a special needs child. The depth in which this made me have communion with Jesus was so refreshing and healing. I will go back and do this study every year!

–Jessica Cowles, Jesus admirer and mother/fighter/advocate to the most amazing special needs son
