Book Review - Juan's Story by Jacqueline Boatright
A Journey into Faith, Driven by a Mother's Love
September 9, 2001, a beautiful Sunday morning, fourteen month old Anthony DeJuan Boatwright's life was changed forever. He was found in a bucket of bleach saturated mop water while being cared for at a residential Day Care Center in Hephzibah, Georgia. Jacqueline Boatwright, Juan's mother, records the incident and her journey of faith over the next seven years in this poignant, stirring account of "Juan's Story."
After being given CPR, Juan was rushed to Children's hospital, connected to life support systems, and soon pronounced brain dead. Jacqueline persistently refused to accept the doctor's prognosis. The story that follows tells of Jacqueline's mission in discovering the power of the prayer, of faith, of claiming God's promises, and battling, Satan's attempts at discouragement and unbelief.
The book is written as a testimony to help the reader discover strength in time of weakness, a better understanding of faith and how to master it. The narrative is filled with scripture promises, examples from Jackie's life, contemporary prayer warriors, Biblical examples, and instructions on using prayer to claim the promises of God.
On Juan's behalf, Jackie, has shared his story through newspaper articles, television appearances, personal speaking engagements, and as a child support activist, to bring about legislation that may spare others from experiencing first hand what Juan and Jackie have been through.
"Juan's Story" is a dynamic account of the power of prayer. The story is heart rending and heart warming. This is a book every preschool parent, every daycare workers, every emergency first responder, and everyone in the medical profession should read. Powerfully written.
