I have fought the good fight, I have finished
the race, I have kept the faith.
2 Timothy 4:7 (NIV)

 

Hello, and welcome to the launch page for my book. My name is Ben Parrish. I am 35 years old and was born and raised in Lynchburg, VA. I have a beautiful wife, Julie, and 2 precious children; my adorable daughter Lee, and my laugh-a-minute son, JJ. I was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Disease in February 2007. The initial news sent shockwaves through my family. But what Satan meant for death and destruction, God turned around to bring peace and victory.

It’s hard to believe it’s been 5 years since I first sat down to write about my journey. I’ve read and re-read bits and pieces in the time since, but my recent revisit to the book to both edit and update brought back lots of forgotten emotions and feelings and reminded me, yet again, that I am loved beyond compare. The thought is just unreal to my human mind but in my heart I know it to be true.

So, here it is. Enjoy the story. I pray you’ll be blessed and I’m certain you will be.

Excerpt from the Forward:

"Life isn’t fair, and we don’t always get to choose the battles we will fight or the circumstances we will face. But for the child of God, victory is always assured. And though even victory does not always come in the form we might desire, in Ben’s case it did. And we are eternally grateful to our loving heavenly Father; who chose to hear the cries of our heart and graciously grant our request for Ben’s healing."

About the Author
:

My name is Ben Parrish. I am 30 years old and was born and raised in Lynchburg, VA. I have a beautiful wife, Julie, and a precious 1 year old daughter, Lee. I was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Disease in February 2007. The initial news sent shockwaves through my family. But what Satan meant for death and destruction, God turned around to bring peace and victory.

My intent at first was to try to mass publish my testimony in an attempt to get it to as many people as might want to read it or need to hear it. Because I am not a known author, or even a known anybody, having my story accepted for publication would not be easy. Add to the mix that material profits, royalties, or any other form of compensation was not a goal, it was very easy to accept the suggestions of those whom I had asked for assistance that it might be best to post it online and give it away. After all, it's ministry and inspiration purposed.

So, here it is. Enjoy the story. I'm certain you'll be blessed.
