Acknowledging that all who suffer this loss will never be the same, she reassures readers that God will be present through every moment of every day.

You are Still a Mother by Jackie Gibson tells the story of loss and heartache in The Moon Is Always Round from her unique perspective as a mom.

“This beautiful book captures both the profound devastation of losing a child through stillbirth or miscarriage, as well as the profound hope in God that is available in the midst of loss. It is a terrible thing to go through a pregnancy with all its anticipation and then to have empty arms. This book provides caring companionship and hope for healing for those who face this complicated grief.”
—Nancy Guthrie, Author of Hearing Jesus Speak into Your Sorrow

“This is the story of Jackie Gibson and of Leila, her beloved stillborn daughter. It is heartrendingly honest but also profound. And the hands that composed these sentences while drenched in tears also carry keys that open doors of hope. While written especially for Jackie Gibson’s sisters in sorrow, You Are Still a Mother is a gift to the whole church.”
—Sinclair Ferguson, Preaching Associate, Trinity Church, Aberdeen; author of The Whole Christ
