In the vein of such bestselling series as Chicken Soup for the Soul and Cup of Comfort comes a beautiful new book about God’s place in one of the most exciting, inspiring, and spiritual journeys in life—pregnancy and childbirth. This collection of inspirational stories are told from the experiences of ob-gyn Dr. Scott Lauer and his patients. They offer hope when pregnancy isn’t perfect, humor at the more challenging aspects of pregnancy, and words of wisdom at a time when it’s needed most. Most important, they remind you of the grace of God and the power of those words: In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. Genesis 1:1 About the Authors: Scott D.
