Publisher's Synopsis
Eve is a bold supporter of the rights of unborn children. She prays that God will wake the Church up and give believers a spirit of adoption, but shes never had an opportunity to live out these prayers. One summer morning outside an abortion clinic, she is given a chance. Lisa is pregnant, trapped by fear and past tragedy. She is planning to abort her baby when she encounters Eve. Eve offers the unthinkable: she will adopt Lisas unborn baby in addition to raising her own unborn son. Have your baby, Eve pleads. I promise you, Ill find a way to take her into my home. Let her live. Trent works at the abortion clinic where Eve prays. He keeps his head down and tries his best to live a normal life despite his profession. He barely dares to hope he and his wife Beth will one day have a child. When he meets Eve, hes forced to examine his choices and doubts. The agreement with Eve leads Lisa down the long road of healing. Trent takes a more difficult path, while Beth comes to grips with her own past. And Eve must prepare for not one baby, but two, as God uses her to touch three very different hearts. Drifting In and Out of Sleep is a powerful story of redemption, forgiveness and restoration. It calls the Church to awaken fully to the issue of abortion and to act on behalf of the defenseless and voiceless. From prayer to adoption to offering forgiveness and healing, this novel challenges believers everywhere to take a stand for life. Sarah Hanks lives with her husband Kevin and her three children in St. Louis, Missouri, where they are involved in the Gateway House of Prayer, interceding and providing training for the children there.
