I am a six-year breast cancer survivor. I am very happy about this fact, because I was given an opportunity to write about that experience. This is a chronological and personal testimony of my fight against this devastating disease. This book strives to encourage and invite readers, whether in perfect health or stricken by illness, to trust God in all situations. My journey with breast cancer was a test of my faith in God. Through my own struggle, I remind readers that life is going to be filled with difficult and sometimes life-changing situations when our faith is tested. At these crucial times, it is our test to decide how we will respond. Find out how I responded, and then get ready to be introduced or re-introduced to someone who cares about every situation you will encounter.

Reverend Diana M. Fields shares how her faith helped her slay the cancer giant for good in part two of her memoir. After beating breast cancer, she breathed a sigh of relief. But six years after her initial lumpectomy in 2006, doctors told her because the BRCA gene could show up at any time in her other breast, she should consider yet another surgery. She wasn’t ready to hear that and asked God, “Why another surgery?” Just when she had begun to settle into being cancer-free, she was hit with this bombshell news. In continuing to tell her story, the author reveals how she withstood the emotional, and physical toll of medical tests, surgeries, and treatments to slay the cancer giant once and for all.

Joyce Herr started a new chapter in her life in March of 2017 when she was diagnosed with cancer. At times, this experience led her through some deep valleys with dark and threatening shadows. She found herself in need of courage and a source of strength beyond her own to be able to press on. In Praising God in the Valley, Herr shares her story telling about the challenges she faced, the hope and peace God gave her, the many lessons God taught her through cancer that ultimately enriched her life, and other unexpected blessings of the journey. Praising God in the Valley helps you realize how God can use cancer and other adversity to bless you and prepare you to be an ambassador for Him, to bear witness of His love and sustaining strength in your trials in a world that asks: “What difference does it make to be a Christian?” “If God is so good, why do bad things happen to good people?”; and “How can I know for sure I’m going to heaven when I die?” Herr insists that when you discover the courage, strength, peace, and hope God provides, you, too, will be able to praise God in the valley.
