The Redeemed Side of Broken

Templetons don't break down. Even when their world is falling apart. Eric Templeton's well-ordered life as a top CIA agent is shattered when a traitor within the agency plots to have him eliminated. Sent on a bogus mission to Africa, Eric is ambushed and critically wounded. A helicopter pilot flies him to a remote mission hospital where Dr. Brock Whitfield and his daughter, Ellie, work to save his life. If Eric survives, his life may never be the same, and he still has to deal with the traitor who wants him dead.

Life couldn’t be better or sweeter for Eric and Ellie Templeton as they begin their life together as new Christians and a newly married couple. But Ellie enters her marriage with some baggage of her own. What if Eric goes back on another mission? What if she loses this man who has become her life? Even worse, what if God never lets them have a child of their own? God has some spiritual surgery he must perform on Ellie to free her from the deep-seated feelings of guilt and doubt that have bound her soul for years.

For years, Brock Whitfield served God with joy at the mission hospital he founded in Angola. When Joy Stockman joined the team as a surgical assistant, Brock found a woman whose zeal for God and heart for people equaled and in many ways surpassed his own. After years of serving alone, Brock hoped that God was giving him another chance to love and be loved. But a crisis causes Brock to put his personal plans on hold. As he prayed for guidance, Brock’s faith and obedience were put to the test, as God brought the perfect person into his life and then asked him to give her up.
