Publisher's summary

CHRISTY Award - Finalist 2024 (print)!!

For eighteen years, she tried to believe she had made the right decision―for him.

But if she never saw him again, how could she ever be sure?

Melissa had clung to the thin thread of hope given by the adoption agency that someday her newborn son might want to connect with her. When his eighteenth birthday arrived, she called the agency to simply update her contact information, not expecting a response.

Susan and Jimmy Colton had raised their boy with openness about his adoption. After the heartbreaking loss of two infant sons that marked their early years of marriage, they promised themselves they would try not to hold too tightly to David or hold back any information he wanted about his birth. And so they waited on him.

David was hesitant to talk about the questions and curiosities about his birth story that often haunted him. But as he neared adulthood, his need to know the full story of his life became something he couldn’t shake. Until the call came to the Coltons from the adoption agency, and the first tentative bits of communication and connection set in motion a story that would change all their lives forever.

From the team that brought you the movies Courageous and War Room comes Lifemark, the novelization of the new film inspired by a true story of adoption, redemption, and hope.

Awesome Job

It hits the mark of our society, I have known many women who have been put in the situation of being in the abortion clinic. Many have gone through the abortion.Others have had botched abortions that almost killed the mother and they are sterile because of the attempt. I also have met two who crawled off the table and left only to be able to fulfill their role as mothers. Thank You for this story. More people need to hear the amazing testimony of Jesus forgiveness and hope beyond the point of extreme pressure. The world our goverment: does not want this story told. They do not believe in the sanctity of human rights. Keep up the Fight.

Great Story

Such a beautiful story of how someones life is broken and another is so richly blessed. It showed the true blessing of how adoption is a great way to heal a disruptive life. And healing for another.

Occasional Reader

I loved this book. I am a reunited birth mom, and several members of an adoption triad group I co- founded 19 years ago and I are attending the movie Lifemark together next week. Then we are going to discuss the movie at our monthly meeting the following week. Thanks for writing this book.

I love the emphasis on abortion being wrong

It’s inspiration to keep trusting God in the hard times because God always allows the hard time to come for a reason.
