Caregiving is holy work.

 


Caring for a loved one can stretch the heartstrings and the soul in equal measure, leaving caregivers to walk a path that is exhausting, isolating, stressful, and seemingly thankless.


 


In Caregiving with Grit and Grace, author Jessica Ronne offers solace for your journey and extends a heartfelt invitation to view your role through the lens of eternity. Learn to

- reframe your challenges,
- embrace God's ever-present faithfulness, 
- be more present with your loved ones, and
- draw strength from the fellowship of suffering.


Jesus sees your labor of love—every sacrifice, every tender touch, every hard-earned sigh. Let this book remind you that with every act of devotion, you glorify God and reflect the heart of the One who cares for us all.

Jessica Ronne calls herself "the reluctant caregiver" and believes that if she were the Almighty in search of a voice for caregivers, she would not have chosen herself!   But here she is in a role that has become strangely familiar, having cared for her sick husband for three years, her profoundly disabled son for more than nineteen years, eight children, and parent caregivers worldwide through her advocacy roles. It's not a position she would have ever picked, but it's a role that she has obediently embraced.   Though she admits she may not be the most sympathetic person, Jessica is a doer and a get-'er-done-r. She earned a master's degree in education from Grand Valley State University in 2015, walking the stage to accept the honor while seven months pregnant with her eighth child.   She is also the founder and executive director of The Lucas Project, a nonprofit serving parent caregivers with recognition, respite, and resources, and hosts Coffee with Caregivers, a podcast where she chats with caregivers about the joys and trials of raising a child with complex needs.   Drawing from her experiences as a caregiver, Jessica produced the documentary Unseen: How We're Failing Parent Caregivers & Why It Matters, which aired on PBS in 2023. She is the creator of Hope Farm, a residential home for disabled adults, and author of Sunlight Burning at Midnight, Blended with Grit and Grace, Lovin' with Grit & Grace, and Caregiving with Grit and Grace.   Jessica believes that faithful obedience is what we are called to do on this side of eternity, and as long as she remains faithful, the Lord will provide. She and her husband, Ryan, reside in Holland, Michigan, with their children.
