We have come to the final chapters of Treasuring Grace. We hope you have enjoyed the journey and have come to love this family and their struggles as much as we do. We would love to hear your thoughts on the book and this virtual book club. For now, here are the last discussion questions and author insights. Thanks for being part of this process.
In
Chapter 25, how do you think the confession went for Liz ?
First,
I think it’s important to know that the confession scene is an accurate
depiction of what a woman in Liz ’s
position could experience. The scene is consistent with Church teaching. The
theme would be forgiveness, not punishment or harsh judgment.
“Giddy”, I think, would be the word to describe the feeling she
would have after having that enormous burden suddenly removed.
Chapter
26 is the end of the story. How do you think the Swansons will do?
Jake’s
world got rocked a little bit, but he’s stronger and wiser for it. Alyssa
is still cheerful and mischievous, but also a little wiser. Grocery shopping
has been the benchmark in Liz and
Scott’s relationship, and they’re back to doing it together. The
void in their marriage has been removed, and they’re communicating and
sharing ideas. Liz is coming to
terms with the abortion and finding peace by writing to Grace in her journals.
They’ll do well.
