Lessons My Dogs Taught Me About Life, Loss, and Grace

De: Dave Burchett

Narrado por: Maurice England

Amazing (furry) lessons from a dog's life.

You'll be enthralled by this story of a man and his lovable Labrador retriever, Hannah, and what their canine friendship can show us about life, grace, and long walks in the park. Hannah was Dave Burchett's best friend. He couldn't imagine starting a day without her tail wagging an energetic greeting, her body wiggling with sheer gratitude when her food dish was filled, and her unbridled enthusiasm for tennis balls. (How she fit three in her mouth at once, he’ll never know.) So when he first learned of Hannah's cancer diagnosis, Dave decided to take whatever time he had left with Hannah to cherish the moments and capture his thoughts in a journal. As he wrote about his canine friend, he soon realized that Hannah was an able (and loving) mentor of faith, grace, kindness, and forgiveness. The lessons were invaluable: from being present to trusting the master. Dave started to see that the insights he was gaining were more than just journal entries about a family pet. Through Hannah's antics, God was preparing Dave for life itself.

Absolutely brilliantly written

Dave nails some amazing truths while bringing them to life through the lessons he learned from his dog Hannah! As a fellow dog lover, I could relate on every aspect of the journey & gleaned much wisdom from Hannah’s life journey, example and mentoring. Such a beautiful way of connecting Gods truths and really bringing home the points! Absolutely brilliant writing! Love this book so much!!!

I have listened to this over and over at least 3 times. Every time I found something new. I love this book. Helps me to feel content and safe know God is watching over me. The book though brought tears to my eyes remembering my dog who passed away in February 2018.
Thank you for a wonderful book on Audible!

Gracie

We lost our sweet Gracie, (shitzu) on 5/20/22. Shared 15 1/2 amazing, blessed years with her by our side.
On the day she departed to heaven, it snowed large snowflakes! Yes, May, 20,2022 in Colorado Springs. Gracie was in my arms with my Husband Pat by my side as we all three looked up to the sky to see large snowflakes coming down. We like to think It was a “Welcome Home Gracie” from God.
Blessed!
This book has warmed my heart!
Thank you,

Best one I’ve listened to this year

I cannot love this one enough! Or recommend it enough! I am a lab owner (many actually). I love how the author shows us things in ways our beloved dogs do or feel and compares it to our own actions with God. Lots of toes might be stepped on so to speak in so much we can improve on with our relationship with God. I could so relate to it and will listen to it over again. I listened on Audible (excellent) but will be purchasing the book so I can highlight a lot! Thanks to my author friend Savannah Hendricks for recommending this book.

Loved this book!

This book really opened my eyes and heart again. I am sticking to be a better Christian and Stay.
