When AIDS Comes Home

AIDS. Just how far removed from our lives is it? Many Christians believe the disease strikes only those with sinful lifestyles, and therefore have often been guilty of shunning the victims. The time is fast approaching, however, and may already be here for some, when the AIDS virus will creep into our churches and maybe even our families. Are we prepared to face such a situation? In an honest and straightforward fashion, Wayne Marshall (alias Jerry Thacker), presents his story, the story of a Christian family suddenly struck by the AIDS virus. He relates their fears, their struggles, and their hopes for the future, attacking the common stereotypes of AIDS victims and calling upon Christians to respond mercifully and with grace. This book will challenge all Christians to examine their attitudes toward this disease and to react in a loving, Christlike attitude to those afflicted by it. -- Back cover.
