When Skies Aren't Blue

A Physician's Personal Journey

By: Andy Laurie

Narrated by: Kim Rasmussen

What do you do when the skies in your life turn dark?

There are many struggles in this difficult world that can darken our skies. It may be ongoing health issues, depression/anxiety, relationship struggles, financial calamity and so much more.

Andy Laurie, MD, had seemingly the perfect life. He had a successful medical practice. He was starting a second career as a pastor. He was young and healthy. He had a beautiful, loving wife and four small children. His life could not have been better. It was nothing but blue skies.

Then, the unthinkable hit. He was struck with a devastating illness. The skies of his once-wonderful life became dark, very dark.

Dr. Laurie has been battling illness for nearly two decades. He has now courageously shared his story with you. Relying on nearly thirty years of medical practice and over twenty years in the ministry, Dr. Laurie has written prescriptions for you to find hope, strength, contentment, joy, and even victory when the struggles of life have darkened your blue skies.

A good book to read.

I enjoyed reading this book, but that makes me more worried about my daughter, who has the same symptoms. Also, I can't entirely agree with his theological side.

His determination to do the best he could and trust God to help him through his journey

I loved this book! I have the same disease and have the same struggles and this book gave me wonderful encouragement!!!
