In 2009, Kevin C. McCall, loving husband and proud father of three, experienced the unimaginable: His youngest son, Ryan, was murdered in a robbery attempt after leaving a college party in Tampa, Florida. In For the Love of Family, Kevin shares his personal journey through shock, horror, grief, anger, reconciliation, and healing. Over the course of more than six years, Kevin fought daily to escape the grip of depression and hate; he fought to center his life around love and faith. Encounters and events, sometimes curious yet ultimately enlightening, weave throughout his days and nights, guiding him forward. Although his story is harrowing and painful, it is also filled with love--love for his family and love for life.
This book contains poems, essays, and thoughts which are designed to provoke deep thinking, reinforcement (for some), and even change (for others). The author presents a collection of social networking posts he shared in the past, which are being reworked into something more distributable. It makes a good gift for moralistic, value-focused individuals. It may be useful with Churches and families who seek further advice and instruction for Christian living and Christian education. Providing thoughts on reality as well as light-hearted pieces to dull some of the pain, this book seeks to provide hope, help, and clarification in this time of confusion and distress we call Life.
