Premier Woman to Woman Conference, Central Hall, London
Ten years. Ten whole years of waiting. And at the end of those ten years my wife Merryn and I come to this heart-breaking conclusion—our dream of having a child is over. We know the feeling of raised expectations and crushing disappointment. We know the heartache, pain, and jealousy you can feel. We know the anger at God, the guilt over being ‘the cause’ of the problem, and the unexpected burden of hope. And after speaking to thousands of people from all walks of life, I now know these feelings aren’t limited to infertility. The same feelings are there over the broken dream of singleness, divorce, the loss of a career, or the dream career never starting. I also know that you can start again and see your broken dream become a new beginning.

The unexpected outcome of our ordeal was Resurrection Year, a book that has brought hope to many across the world.
