About this book
As David Motte states in The Gift of Blarney, "God wants to be involved in our lives. We have the freedom to choose His involvement or ignore His presence every day." That was never truer than on April 20, 2018, at the 600-year-old Blarney Castle in County Cork Ireland. That day, David received a gift more precious than wishes from kissing the Blarney Stone. In fact, he never reached the stone! While climbing the castle steps, he suffered a cardiac arrest, collapsed, and had no heartbeat for 15 minutes. Yet David is alive through the heroic efforts of a collection of special strangers from around the globe. Those incredible circumstances pale in comparison to the reality that God was in control every second, pouring out His love and comfort.
What Other Say About This Book:
A humbling story of hope and humanity.
?Kate Durrant
There were a lot of factors that had to line up that morning for David and they did; he had someone very special looking out for him "up there."
?Ger O'Dea
The fifteen minutes that David Motte does not remember are fifteen minutes that I will never forget.
?Phyllis Dickinson
When I met David and then interviewed him for our television channel in Ireland, I realized I was looking at and talking to a real-life miracle. The book is a must read for believers and non-believers.
An inspirational story of a man who beat all the odds.
