"When Christian singer and speaker Staci Frenes learned her teenage daughter was gay, she found her dreams for the future--along with her lifelong faith--collapsing around her. Coming to terms with a new reality was a challenge--and an invitation--to make room for many things along the way: the inevitability of uncertainty, hope in the midst of loss, awkward and tough conversations, an expanding faith, and a greater understanding of how people are more the same than different. In Love Makes Room, Frenes helps readers see that a reimagined future may look different than our old hoped-for pictures of ourselves and our families, but it can also be wider, deeper, and more fulfilling than we ever dreamed. "
"These pages are not trying to win any arguments, but are a beautiful opening to many important conversations. This book is timely for me, and is giving me language for my own journey with people I love. I want to make room. " --Sara Groves, Singer/Songwriter and Recording Artist"If you are committed to understanding and loving you gay child, queer cousin, or trans neighbor, start here with Love Makes Room. The story of Staci Frenes' s quest for a more expansive expression of love will help you make room in your heart for others, too. It' s that simple. It' s that difficult. It' s that profound. " --Jonathan Merritt, contributing writer for The Atlantic and award-winning author of "Learning to Speak God from Scratch""This is a story of invitation and awakening. With tender eloquence, Staci Frenes reminds us that love' s most extraordinary gift often starts so simply--by putting your ear to the chest of those you cherish most and listening deeply to their heart. " --Jennifer Knapp, singer/songwriter, author Facing The Music"When I came out to my mom many years ago, we were both flying blind. The process was new, scary, and fraught with pitfalls for both of us. If we' d had a handbook to walk us through the emotions of that season, it would have changed everything. Thankfully, Staci Frenes has written that book. And I can' t wait to see the GOOD that it' s going to unleash into the world. " --B. T. Harman, Creative Consultant & Creator of Blue Babies Pink
