My Son, My Son: A True Story

The Palmers were at a loss - their son, Barry, was out of control. All of their efforts to raise him in a loving, God-filled environment seemed wasted. Rather than growing into a good, godly man, Barry was going from bad to worse. The rebellion and delinquency of his youth had given way to alcoholism, gambling, and now infidelity. If Barry didn't change soon, his parents feared he would lose everything - his wife, his daughters, his job ... his life. This remarkable true story illustrates God's patience and grace, and the power he wants to bring into each of our lives to change and heal us. It is a story of loving and risking, a story that shows the pain of realizing that sometimes the only way to help someone is to let him go.
