"Surprised by Grace" is beautiful - it is a beautiful real story that will draw you into Elizabeth's life, open your eyes to God and Heaven and encourage you in your relationship with God. Elizabeth Sherrill opens her heart in this book that tells her story. Elizabeth shares the joys in her life and the struggles, she does not sugarcoat things, but she is upfront, real and honest. This is an encouraging book that I thoroughly enjoyed reading. I felt as if I was sharing a deep, meaningful conversation with a close friend over mugs of coffee while reading this book, instead of just sitting there reading and drinking a cup of coffee. The style of this book is so easy to get into and I felt as if I journeyed through life with Elizabeth. I highly recommend this book for anyone whom would like to strengthen their walk and relationship with God and be encouraged in their faith.
