Having known Bill Shade for 40 years, I can attest to the fact that he stands as a rare example of a man of faith who speaks with a clear voice. His life’s work for Christ as chronicled in “Amazed by Grace” is anchored by deep battle-tested convictions.

I have known Bill for over 40 years and he is one of the most passionate and knowledgeable men I know. He and his wife Ruby are the example of God’s choicest servants who team together to serve our Lord. Thank you my dear friends for leaving your legacy, “Amazed by Grace”. You both are very special people!

“Amazed by Grace” is the story of a modern day George Mueller. For almost six decades of ministry, Bill and Ruby Shade repeatedly stepped forward without resources to see God provide in ways that amaze. Like Mueller who provided for thousands of children, the Shades have impacted many thousands of people all over the world. This is a must read autobiography for those who want to catch a vision of walking by faith.

The author is a great writer whose style of writing is articulate, detailed and engaging. He unveils enough emotion in the story for the reader to feel that they really get to know him, but it does not overpower the plot itself. His heart for evangelism and spreading the Gospel is evident throughout his travels to preach, minister and be a witness to the unsaved around him. These spiritual lessons are expertly woven throughout the fabric of the stories.

The author’s tenacity in the face of obstacles, resistance, and even failure, will encourage and inspire readers who are facing difficult circumstances in their own lives. The conclusion to the book is strong and readers will appreciate the update on the writer and the various members of his family whom they will have formed connections within the book.
