Holmes invites readers on a transformative journey into the realm of neurodiversity. Whether you're a family living with autism, an educator seeking to enhance your inclusive practices, or a dedicated advocate, this book offers invaluable insights and strategies to promote healthy neurodiverse marriages and families.

Throughout the book, readers will find hindsight learning, spiritual devotion, and moments of reflection to assess their own journeys. Dr. Holmes' wealth of knowledge, coupled with her heartfelt commitment to autism advocacy, provides a beacon of hope and understanding for anyone touched by neurodiversity. This is the first book of its kind to share autism and faith from each family member's perspective!
