Book overview

Seven days to decide if life is worth living.

 

At fifteen, Sammy is drowning in grief and abuse. Convinced the only way out is to end her life, she sets a seven-day countdown.

 

But when a new friend enters her life and she receives a mysterious invitation to Heaven, everything begins to change. What she discovers there challenges her despair, reshapes her faith, and forces her to choose between giving up or embracing a future filled with hope.

 

Blending contemporary realism with spiritual themes, A Glimpse of Glory is a Christian young adult novel that explores depression, suicide, grief, and redemption. Written for teens and crossover adult readers, it offers encouragement to those navigating life's hardest questions and reminds readers that even in the darkest moments, there is light, faith, and a reason to keep living.
