title: A Gift of Love
author: McDaniel, Lurlene
description: God is faithful, Callie. Of that one thing, I'm sure... Four years after the tragic death of her young husband, music professor Callie O'Ryan had nearly lost all confidence in God's faithfulness. A strange quirk of events thrusts her into the life of Marc Raphael, a popular Christian musician she had idolized as a teenager, when he was still a riotously successful rock star.
  
  When Marc invites her to contribute her musical talents to a Christian musical he has dreamed of composing, Callie's life is turned around. She learns that Marc's Christianity is not only especially rich, but also painfully difficult - he's Jewish. But Callie also discovers that Jesus Christ can turn the pain of a people, as well as her own mourning, into eternal joy.
