Dear Gail,

Hi it’s Vicki.

I just finished your book. I’ve had it for several months, but just had time on vacation to read it. We’ve been so busy we haven’t had a moment until we went on vacation.  It’s good thing because I couldn’t put it down once I began. With every page I read I was compelled to read the next and this from a non reader, so to speak!

 

I cried and laughed, felt the stress and at times got angry at certain people and events.  It was easy to see why Zig was left speechless. You and your beloved family are more wonderful than I knew. This was awe inspiring and very encouraging as well as faith building to read. I’m so glad you finally did it.

Hi Gail!

This is Tara…Tony gave me one of your books at the…picnic and I'm so glad he did!  I couldn't put the book down.  I finished it in 6 days, which may be a record for me. I've heard bits and pieces of your story, but never from beginning to present.  (We) have loved your family so much already, and now I understand why the character of the McWilliams is so attractive to others: you pray, cry, and have so much fun together!  One of my favorites from the book is the visual I get of you driving a four-wheeler FULL THROTTLE with Tony hanging on for dear life, feet flapping in the wind behind him! Thank you for the effort and strength it took you to write this book. Oprah would be so lucky to read it!

Much love,

Tara

Hi Gail and Tony,

(My sister) had Gail's book, "Seeing Beyond". I told her I would like to read it, so she let me. I just wanted to tell you that it is beautifully written and was very easy reading. I loved it! Although there were some parts I got very teary-eyed…I was wishing though that there was a picture of your family in the book. I didn't see one, so I got on line on the computer and (saw) a picture of your family…You and Tony have a beautiful family…Just wanted to drop a note to both of you and tell you I read your book. (My husband) said, "That book must be pretty good, because every time you pick it up to read, you don't fall asleep". You certainly have a hit.

Love and God bless, Penny

…I just finished your book.  I just bought your book last Wednesday after hearing you and your husband speak at my home church...  I could hardly put the book down!  If it weren’t for my job and other daily tasks that superseded my reading time I’m sure I would’ve finished your book in one setting! Thank you, thank you, thank you for telling your story.  It is a beautiful story to reflect upon as I daily try to see my life through God’s eyes and through His vision for my life.  You have shown me how to enjoy and relish each moment and view each endeavor, task or obstacle as a chance to gain new vision for life. 

Work on book number two really soon, because you have a true gift of telling the story!  God is alive in this first book of yours; I felt it on every page!   Seeing Beyond has encouraged me to view life way beyond how I am presently seeing it!

Thank you!

Carma

Good afternoon,

I have just completed reading Gail’s book. It certainly is an inspiring book. I cried a little and laughed a little while reading it. She seems like such a delightful person. Her life has not been the most perfect that anyone would want to endure. She handled it with such dignity and seems like the strongest person I have ever heard of with so many obstacles in her way. Her family is the most important thing in her life I can tell, aside from the Love of the Lord. What a talented family she has and is. I will be handing it on to my family to share the Blessing I have gotten from her book. I very much enjoyed the DVD also…

I would appreciate if you would tell her how much I enjoyed it… We don't think of how we would react if this happened to us. We would hope we would rely on The Lord the way she has.

Love to all,

Jane

Dear Gail,

 

Thank you so much for the wonderful blessing it was to get to experience your amazing book.  Thank You!  There were so many things I wanted to comment on, but now that I am at my computer I am overwhelmed with it all... what a great book!  What an amazing story!  What a wonderful woman! 

You had me crying one sentence and laughing the next at times...  you touched my heart!  Thank You!   

In Christ,
Steven

I finished your Mother's book this past weekend. Your mother's story and that of you and your family is truly amazing.  I believe the book is a powerful message of the grace and love of God.  I love how your mother expressed that through her humility and vulnerability that her inner vision helped her see in life's darkest places and how trust and determination will help us to finish the race.  I know this book will speak to millions of people and change the lives of many.

Thank you again for sending me the book.  I really enjoyed reading it. 

When I read the last page and closed the book I thought to myself... "That was really a good book and I wished there was more to read..." at that moment I looked down and noticed your mother had signed the book just inside the cover, it said "There is MORE!" I believe in prophetic messages so I will be looking for the next book. :)

God Bless,

Zenon
