Summary
Overall Second in the Redemption series by awardwinning author, Karen Kingsbury and relationship expert, Gary Smalley, Remember focuses on memories, and the effect memories play in our belief system, relationships, goals, friendships, growth or lack of growth, etc. The story picks up with the Baxter family as each person in the family has to work through issues with their memories in order to be able to carry on. Significantly, only a few chapters into the book the tragedy of the terrorists' attacks on September 11 happen, leading each character to be impacted by memories of lovedones lost or an America changed or seeking a renewed love relationship with The
Lord. This is a story laden with heavy topics; the authors help the reader consider these emotions in a tender and honorable way. Another element of the storyline that develops the importance of memories is dealing with the debilitating disease of Alzheimer's. I think this aspect of the story is one of the most touching and beautiful
parts of the whole book.
