W Publishing Group To Publish First Trade Work From Best-Selling Music Artist Laura Story
"WHEN GOD DOESN'T FIX IT" TO RELEASE ON SEPTEMBER 15, 2015
NASHVILLE, Tenn., April 14, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Worship leader and recording artist Laura Story's life took an unexpected turn when her husband, Martin, was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Over the past decade, they have faced the logistical challenge of living life with disabilities resulting from Martin's brain injury but have also wrestled with the deeper challenge of understanding why a good God would allow such pain and confusion in their lives. And yet, Laura has found joy and a deeper intimacy with Jesus through this and other broken dreams.
