Desert Lily: Resilience in the Wilderness

By Andrew Gunnink, Bethany Noel Gunnink, Rachel Robinson

Desert Lily: Resilience in the Wilderness is an anthology of poems from various authors, reflecting on the experiences of infertility, loss, and hope in God.
Life's journey can present us with unique challenges, each one shaping our story in its own way. In this upcoming book, we offer a glimpse into a particularly challenging path that 1 in 6 couples walk. Whether you've felt the weight of infertility and loss yourself or you're supporting someone who has, we believe this book will resonate deeply with you.
The poets contributing to this collection bring diverse experiences and perspectives on the sensitive topics of infertility, mourning, and seeking strength from God during tough times. However, themes of loss, despair, crying out to God in the midst of pain, and holding on to hope unite us all as we navigate these heart-wrenching experiences. Our prayer is that this outpouring of our hearts can serve as a balm on the journey.
Infertility is not a solo journey - it impacts the couple along with the community. As you walk this road or walk alongside someone who is, may you be filled with peace and hope in this visual rendering of trusting in the Father's goodness along the way, and reminded that you do not walk alone.
