Whispers of Faith
About this eBook
Two hearts. One extraordinary love story. A journey of hope that defies every odd.
Devon Christensen has spent most of his sixteen years feeling like an outsider—trapped in a body that refuses to cooperate, abandoned by weary parents, and lost in the sterile routine of a group home. With cerebral palsy, a speech impediment, and a heart full of unspoken pain, he’s convinced God has forgotten him.
Then he discovers Whispers of Hope, a novel by Rebecca Gallagher—a girl who understands his struggles in ways no one else could. Born with the same condition, Rebecca’s words radiate a joy and faith Devon can’t comprehend. When he reaches out in a vulnerable letter, he never expects her to respond.
But Rebecca does.
Through ink and paper, their connection deepens—two wounded souls finding solace in shared words and whispered prayers. As their friendship blossoms into something more, Devon begins to see himself through Rebecca’s eyes: not broken, but beloved. Not abandoned, but chosen.
But when a health crisis threatens to shatter Devon’s fragile hope, Rebecca does the unthinkable—she crosses state lines to stand by his side. In a hospital room over Zaxby’s chicken and fried pickles, they discover a love stronger than fear, and a faith that refuses to let go.
Whispers of Faith is a poignant, heart-stirring Christian romance about finding God’s light in the darkest places, the redemptive power of love, and the miracles that happen when we dare to believe.
