Perfectly Abnormal is one of those books that should be required reading for churches longing to provide a welcoming environment for all their members.
And it should be required reading for any human who wants to love, empathize, and walk in the shoes of another.
I so appreciated Chris Morris’ wise theology of suffering and his keen insight into those who don’t fit the straightjacket of what society calls “normal.” An excellent book, well written.

I highly recommend this book to any person or family trying to deal with a chronic illness. In its pages you will find practical help to move forward, and hope to experience a life worth living.
Over the past few years I have witnessed the pain and sorrow experienced by Chris and his family. Chris struggles not only the affects of his own physical illness, but the emotional pain of watching his children wrestle with their own sickness.
Add to that the silent frustration and distress caused by well meaning individuals, friends and doctors, who question the reality of his sickness.
Through all of this, I have seen his family dust themselves off, pull together, cling to hope, and refuse to give up.

about the author
Chris Morris writes about how to redefine normal and rediscover hope in the face of chronic illnesses and special needs. His writing is focused on the belief that circumstances don't prevent thriving, but instead they create opportunities for God to demonstrate His goodness.
Chris believes that God is good, every single day, no matter what -- even what every scrap of evidence points to His absence or disinterest. It's from this place of defiant faith that he speaks to the heart of the issues those in the chronic illness and special needs communities experience on a daily basis.
