NEW INSPIRATIONAL FICTION

IN THE CHURCH MEDIA LIBRARY

With Every Breath, by Elizabeth Camden.

When Kate Livingston applies for a job at a Washington DC hospital,

she finds that she would be working with Dr. Kendall who was an

insufferable classmate of hers in school. Kate finds the job

interesting and rewarding as Dr. Kendall is experimenting and

trying to find a cure for the terrible disease of tuberculosis. The

more Kate learns about Dr. Kendall, the more she comes to admire

and respect him. When danger threatens their relationship and his

research, Kate must decide if she is able to trust God to protect and

guide them in the right pathways.

(In memory of Helen Corley by Judy Waugh)
