Editorial Reviews

"Based on her own life story and her experience ministering to others, Mary has created a beautiful gift for those diagnosed with cancer. She not only guides us on a journey of hope but lifts us above our circumstances through the truths of Scripture and an intimate relationship with God. Many lives will forever be changed through the tender and profound wisdom in this book!"
--Julia Holtze, Adult Ministries Pastor, Hosanna!

"Mary Nelson once again has captured the art of bringing God's promises to life for anyone experiencing cancer or other serious health challenges of any kind. As a three-time cancer survivor (ovarian, kidney, and liver) and Care Pastor of a larger congregation, I cannot say enough about the hope, love, peace, clarity, empowerment and healing the book offers a cancer sufferer, a supportive friend or family member or anyone helping them medically or spiritually. When things in life are out of our control, God Himself can bring a powerful peace, filling us with trust instead of fear. The personalization of His Word and grace successfully turns an unknown future into a journey through every phase of life through His strength."
--Pat Moe, Care Ministries Pastor, Hosanna! Church, Lakeville, MN

"Pastor Mary Nelson writes out of her personal experience, not untested theory or theology. She has boldly 'prayed for the cure' with thousands of brokenhearted and feeble-bodied people dealing with the daunting realities of cancer. Physical healing or not, her writing and ministry produce the greatest fruit of all: fortified faith and healed souls."
--Ryan Alexander, Lead Pastor of Hosanna! Church, Lakeville, MN

"As a surgeon, I see patients daily in various stages of their cancer journey. The shock and despair of a cancer diagnosis can be overwhelming. Mary Nelson, in her new book Praying for the Cure, provides patients with a biblically-based guide to help them through their journey with cancer. The typical questions patients have such as, "Why did I get this disease?," "Is God punishing me?," and "Where is God in this illness?" are all beautifully addressed with prayer and scriptures. Patients start their journey with fear and questions but can finish it with hope and a new understanding of God's love for them after reading through the book. I would recommend Praying for the Cure for any believer dealing with cancer or any serious illness or circumstance. The book contains good advice for dealing with life."
--Theodore Sawchuk M.D., F.A.C.S, Urologic Surgeon, Co-founder Burning Hearts Ministry, Fargo, ND

"Mary Nelson wrote her new book straight from Heavenly Father's Heart. Those who read, declare, and believe the truths in her book will go from misunderstanding and doubt about God's love and perfect plans to a place of belief, healing, and restoration. Mary's book is not only for those struggling with cancer but also for anyone going through a trial!"
--Mark and Kathy Strandjord, Cofounders of Spirit of Hope Minstries

Mary has a passion for helping people encounter God and His goodness in the midst of trials and be empowered and set free to live out their destiny. She emerged from a breast cancer diagnosis in 1999 eager to share how God restored and transformed her life. Her deepest desire is to give away what she has freely received.

Mary is the author of Grace for Each Hour: Through the Breast Cancer Journey (Bethany House, 2005), Hope for Tough Times (Revell, 2009), Peace for Each Hour (Comfort Publishing, 2013), and Jehovah-Rapha: The God Who Heals (Shiloh Run Press, 2016). Her books inspire those suffering from physical, emotional, relational, and spiritual brokenness by helping them draw close to the heart of God. She founded and leads the Pray for the Cure cancer healing and discipleship ministry at Hosanna! where she also serves as a leader in the Sozo inner healing ministry and healing prayer ministry.
