It's Time

Narratives of Illness, Aging, and Death

By: Dolores L. Christie

It’s Time presents a series of short stories highlighting an important but neglected aspect of life. Serious illness and aging are dependable harbingers of life’s end. For each of us, there comes a point when we must admit, it’s time. We hear the doctor say this to a dying patient and family members, to parents too long in the family home, to sobered younger people when a spouse or child becomes seriously ill. This kairos, this moment of profound significance, comes to us all. Good stories appeal to everyone. Students, particularly medical students or those in pastoral ministry or other health care disciplines, will find this book a unique, rich resource. Senior learners will find the essays helpful to work through their own history of decision-making, grief, loss. The essays provoke discussion and often closure for painful issues. When It’s Time, each of us must put away the dreams of youth and consider with seriousness death, illness, and grief. This book can help us do just that. It does it well.

In The Shadows of His Grace

By: Dolores WM Fleming

In The Shadows of His Grace By: Dolores WM Fleming In The Shadows of His Grace is Dolores Fleming’s compelling, faith-driven life story. From her earliest years working alongside her siblings and parents as migrant farm workers in Morrisville, Pennsylvania, and attending a segregated school in Trenton, New Jersey, to her early adult years that were shaped by both the pain of infidelity, domestic violence, and divorce and the joy of giving birth, raising her sons, and achieving her personal goals, Fleming’s story is one of unwavering faith in the Lord. She details her struggles as a single mother, the fulfillment of her hard-won professional and educational accomplishments, and even the immeasurable pain of losing her son—all while declaring her love of the Lord and her commitment to church, describing it as the “foundation and the network for all things in family life.” Dolores’ memoir is about her love and faith in God, the joy of loving, giving, and serving others, and about staying focused and persevering, even in the face of grief and sorrow.
