"""Kristi's account of her path to becoming a surrogate mother is searingly honest, often funny, and entirely moving. The tale accurately shows the medical complexities of the process and, more beautifully, Kristi's faith, her joy in giving, and her profound connections with people."" -Catherine Pilgrim-Grayson, MD, MPH, Obstetrician/Gynecologist ""With miracles happening every day, the author captures God's work through her own lens. As a family man, this book hit me deep and left me in happy tears. I believe this book will bring light to many lives and can't wait to share this book with my community."" -Mario Garcia, Executive Director, Aspen House ""You will be touched by this deeply personal retelling of the journey on which God led Kristi to become a surrogate mother. With both charm and gripping honesty, Kristi draws you into a drama that, as it unfolds, reveals the God behind every detail."" -Dr. Doug Kyle, Lead Pastor, Green Valley Church ""The Surrogate Decision is an inspiring story of faith, friendship, and family. Kristi is a thoughtful writer who pours her heart and soul into living for others. We are fortunate to learn from her humble story of altruism and generosity of spirit."" -Dr. Mahri Aste, Adjunct Professor, University of Virginia, Principal, Fairfax County Public Schools ""When God speaks, Kristi listens and obeys. Her love for and faith in God is truly inspiring.
