Surviving
Chronic
Illness:
Grace
in
the
Flames
is
a
quirky,
hopeful,
brutally
honest
look
at
the
world
of
illness
and
what
can
happen
to
one's
faith
and
sanity
when
one
gets
sick
and
never
gets
better.
Society
can
make
life
harder
with
its
engrained
ableism
and
endless
stream
of
unsolicited
medical
advice.
Even
Christians
can
fall
into
the
trap
of
praying
for
healing
as
a
knee-jerk
response
to
pain,
which
is
not
always
helpful.
In
Surviving
Chronic
Illness,
Steph
tells
her
own
story
of
surviving
the
flames
of
Lupus
(also
known
as
'the
great
chameleon')
and
explores
the
impact
of
this
disease
on
work,
relationships,
church,
mental
health
and
walking
with
God.
Steph
intersperses
chapters
with
imagery
and
metaphor
designed
to
capture
the
lived
experience
of
chronic
illness,
and
looks
for
creative
ways
of
responding
to
this
seemingly
dead-end
situation.
Ultimately,
Steph
encourages
us
to
hold
on
to
Jesus
and
to
rely
on
the
grace
that
steadfastly
awaits
us
in
the
inferno
of illness.
