“The Faith Keeper sheds light on how God uses everyday circumstances in our lives to draw us close to Him and how He works through prayer—the fervent prayers of faithful saints, and those humble, honest cries of our hearts. Kendra Shields, Domestic Field Manager, Samaritan’s Purse/Operation Christmas Child A young woman is involved in a potentially life threatening car accident, but her life is mysteriously spared, changing her path forever. Long down the road, despite her strong faith, she becomes overwhelmed with sorrow and suffering and life’s demands. She wonders if God is truly enough. As she searches for answers, she is challenged by scripture to “wake from her slumber” (Romans 13:11). A rescue prayer forms on her lips testifying to a renewed longing to trust in her Saviour. Life altering circumstances follow. Will she find the courage to surrender to Jesus Christ, who has never stopped keeping her faith?
