COURAGE in the VALLEY
God’s Goodness Revealed
By Lisa M. Roseman
Courage. When do we need it? Where do we find it — especially when life changes suddenly and unexpectedly?
One diagnosis, one moment, and everything shifts.
You find yourself in a valley you never saw coming, standing beside someone you love and wonder-ing how to walk forward when the road disappears. In this space of uncertainty, grief, and fierce love, the search for hope becomes deeply personal.
This is the journey Lisa M. Roseman walked when her mother’s health took a sharp turn. As she navigated each twist of that 22-month path, Lisa discovered something sacred beneath the sorrow — quiet moments of divine presence, deep questions about faith, and a miraculous encounter that revealed the nearness of heaven. A lion appeared, not as a symbol, but as a supernatural guide at the threshold of life and eternity, offering a glimpse into the promise of God’s eternal care.

“Courage in the Valley, penned by Lisa M. Roseman, is a truly extraordinary book that pulls at your heartstrings, evoking tears of both joy and sorrow. In a world where chaos often rules, Roseman’s words provide reassurance that courage and peace are within reach, even in the midst of storms, if we choose to trust and lean on God. Thus, this book fosters a transformation that can only arise from drawing closer to Him, our ever-present Father. With each page, Roseman’s story inspires deeper surrender, encouraging us to embrace our own journeys with open hearts and unwavering faith.
I sincerely appreciate the author's bravery in sharing the intimate journey she experienced while caring for her mother. The authenticity displayed is a blessing for all who read and acts as a powerful ministry. Her testimony struck a chord with me; even as a faithful Christian, I occasionally find myself slipping during challenging times, feeling more alone and vulnerable than close to my Savior. However, Roseman’s insights are a motivation to invite God into every season of our lives, highlighting the essential truth that God’s presence is a constant source of strength and comfort. Even in moments when we don't feel it or comprehend the struggles we endure, He is always by our side.
Ultimately, Courage in the Valley is a beautifully crafted read that changes one’s perspective on life. It not only strengthens the reader’s connection to the Lord but also reaffirms that He is the same God who continues to perform miracles in our lives today!”
