From the Draveckys' experience of helping and being helped comes a people-driven, heart-grabbing, faith-inspiring book filled with the intensely personal stories of courage from the lives of those who have inspired Dave and Jan.

Courage does not come easily. But it can be spread when those who have bravely grappled with life's cruelest blows touch us with their indomitable spirit. In Portraits in Courage, Dave and Jan Dravecky share the inspiring accounts of men and women who have faced unthinkable circumstances head-on. Walking you through their "Hall of Faith," the Draveckys invite you to admire, up close, these flesh-and-blood portraits of unquenchable fortitude. Here are the moving stories of ordinary people who have learned how to live with terrible loss. . .or suffer unthinkable pain. . .or face the final enemy, death, with triumphant trust in God. The courage you need may be for something as common as a difficulty in a relationship. It may be for something as shattering as cancer. Whatever your circumstances, these thirty true-life vignettes will encourage you that what God has done for others, he will do for you and those you love.
