Speak to the Mountain Kindle Edition

On May 25, 2000, Mike Palmer, an aerospace engineer and a recognized expert in wind-tunnel design, was dressed and ready to meet friends for a round of golf. His wife Brenda was in the kitchen making him a sandwich. Brenda thought he was tweaking an AutoCAD drawing of a new and exciting project—a wind tunnel that would allow recreational users to
experience the feel of sky-diving. Instead, she found him in his home office sitting in his chair, unable to move or respond. He had experienced a massive hemorrhage from a congenital time bomb in his brain. The odds of his survival, much less his regaining a semblance of his former abilities, were slim. Only time and patience would tell.

Told by Brenda, this is the story of how, catapulted into an unexpected free-fall of their own, the Palmer family would embark on an arduous journey only to discover that what Jesus said is true. Although the paths we walk may challenge everything we know and hope for, with the commitment to keep moving and the support of a community of believers around us—even if we have the “littlest” faith—we can speak to the mountains we encounter…

And they will move.

This is how we should climb OUR mountains!
If you want to know what it is like to actually climb Mount Everest – spiritually – you must read this story! This book is void of esoteric, philosophical, easy speak. Mike and Brenda actualized their faith in real live second-by-second, minute-by-minute, day-to-day action! They reveal how they climbed three mountains - the spiritual mountain, the soulish (one’s mind, emotions, will, & intellect) mountain, and the physical mountain – to escape from being overwhelmed by the enemy! If you want to know what “equipment” is required to climb your mountains – you must read this book! If you want to learn how to “fight the good fight” per 1Tim 6:12 – you must read this book! Simply put, this book provides the secret ingredient to overcoming obstacles as you climb YOUR mountain! Read it. It is an amazing story!

I know Brenda and Mike from school. I knew of his brain insult and was on a prayer list after it happened. To read about it and the extent if his injuries is incomprehensible. Being a witness to his amazing recovery is truly a miracle. I'm so glad you told his story brenda. I enjoyed the book from the very first page.

This book hooked me within the first few pages. It is well written and an easy read. The book will remind you that your life can change in an instant. When you read it, you will feel love, hurt, pain, joy and any other emotion you can think of. You will understand the meaning of long-suffering and perseverance. It is a story of deep love of family, friends and God.

I read the book initially as a family member and then read it again as an 'outsider'. I found it to be an incredible story of raw faith and worthy to share with those facing crisis' of their own.

5.0 out of 5 stars WITH GOD AND FAITHFUL FRIENDS YOU CAN MAKE IT THROUGH YOUR CRISIS.
Reviewed in the United States on December 5, 2022
Very inspiring and encouraging to walk day by day with Brenda in her life changing experience. Her life was completely changed in a split second. Mike not expected to live. So many life altering decisions she had to make daily. Coming home to an empty house. The emotions go from high to low. The unknown day in and day out. But God is His great love and mercy brought her and her children through as they spoke to their mountain hourly, daily, weekly, monthly and yearly. This is a MUST READ.

5.0 out of 5 stars Couldn’t put this book down!
Reviewed in the United States on August 26, 2022
I couldn't put "Speak to the Mountain" down and finished it in two sittings! This is not your usual “health crisis to healing” faith story.
Sharing every thought, doubt, and despair that plagued her and her family, Brenda Palmer holds nothing back as she recounts her husband's sudden near-death experience and how it turned her seemingly perfect world upside down. Palmer nimbly cycles the reader back and forth in time, setting the stage for the tragedy that touches her family and tests their faith. Through raw emotion and a love for God, she paints a portrait of a family in crisis, and how they emerged from their darkest days to an unexpected "ending" that is still divinely sealed. From logic-driven engineers to hopeless romantics to those in search or the tiniest mustard seed of faith, this book will encourage anyone who's received a gut-punch -- to speak to their mountain.
