Book review — Beyond The Big C – Hope in the face of death

Book: Beyond The Big C – Hope in the face of deathAuthor: Jeremy MarshallPublisher: 10PublishingRetail Price: £3.99 (buy now)
Review by Sheila Stephen1 minute readJuly/August 2020, page 28

Beyond The Big C – Hope in the face of death

The author tells his story of struggling with an inoperable and rare cancer with candour, honesty and challenge. His hope for the future is Jesus and this shines through in every page. This is a book you could give to a believer or unbeliever facing cancer treatment. The author brings hope in the face of cancer and death. My only reservation is the sub-title. I’d like to give this book to someone I know, but I am afraid that the word ‘death’ in the title could be a barrier.
