About Tracy Crump

Tracy Crump dispenses hope in her multi-award-winning book, Health, Healing, and Wholeness: Devotions of Hope in the Midst of Illness. Through her work as an intensive care nurse, Tracy witnessed lifesaving miracles when everyone had given up—everyone except God. She cared for patients, family, and friends experiencing medical crises and offered encouragement no matter the situation. Whether you are dealing with a health issue, walking alongside someone who is, or caring for a loved one, these thirty devotions will bring comfort and peace. For those who are navigating a season of caregiving, Tracy started a blog, Caregiver's Corner, to bring encouragement for challenging times. She shares stories of joys and heartaches along with tips now and then to help you survive this season and even make sweet memories.
