Empty Womb, Aching Heart: Hope and Help for Those Struggling With Infertility
When the professional advice isn’t enough, and you’ve had your fill of well-meaning comments from those who haven’t experienced infertility, Marlo Schalesky wants you to know you are not alone. The true stories she tells of couples who share your hopes, fears, frustrations, and the comfort only God can bring will encourage your heart.
Infertility strikes at the core of what it means to be a woman or man, tests marriages, and shakes faith. The honest, open, and emotionally resonant first-person stories in Empty Womb, Aching Heart will touch your life–as you “cry in the diaper aisle,” wonder if you “are less of a woman,” ask “How far should we go?” or whisper to God, “It’s not fair.”
Besides writing books that focus on finding the wonder of God in the places we least expect, Marlo Schalesky is the founder and executive director of Wonder Wood Ranch, a 501(c)3 charity that brings hope through horses to disadvantaged kids. Originally, she was a research chemist (she got my bachelor’s degree in chemistry at Stanford University), but she always knew she wanted to write. A few years ago, she earned her Masters degree in Theology from Fuller Theological Seminary and am now focused on bringing the wonder of God to readers through her books, to kids through the Ranch, and to anyone who is open to the whisper of grace, of mystery, and of breathtaking wonder.
