"In a popular culture oozing with saccharine banalities that can only hope to parody true love and loss, A Grace Given stands apart for its humility, honesty, and genuine devotion. Through this heartfelt telling of the life and death of his oldest child and his own spiritual journey, Kent Gilges invites his readers to discover the high adventure of our humanity – to find, as Pope John Paul II put it, 'the splendor of the truth that shines forth deep within the human spirit.'"
George Weigel
