Synopsis

Lisa and Doug Stringer were ministering in Massachusetts in March 2015 when a lump in Doug's throat started to bother him. "I don't feel well," he told his wife. "The lump I felt in my throat a few days ago feels larger." When they were able to see a doctor, they were horrified to learn that Doug had Stage 4 large B-cell lymphoma that was 80 percent aggressive.
Doug spent the rest of the day sitting in his car, alone in prayer. Finally, he called Lisa to tell her that he was on his way home and he wanted a family meeting and communion. Emotionally exhausted and noses still running from crying, Lisa, her mom, and Ashley gathered in the family room as Doug told them about his time with God.
"God did not do this to me--and if He did not do this to me, then it doesn't belong to me!" he told them emphatically. It was just what they need to hear.
God Did Not Do This to Me is Lisa's story of the family's trials and triumphs through a cancer diagnosis. Putting on the armor of God, Doug was determined to turn his battle with cancer into an intercession for the country, even joking that the chemotherapy treatments made him resemble a bald eagle.
By the end of the year, Doug's cancer was in remission.
"We know that the Great Physician heard the numerous prayers of our friends and spiritual family from all over the world, and blessed us all with a testimony of His healing power," Lisa says. "We are forever changed through this experience. He has expanded my heart of compassion, taught me to pour out more grace, to be an even bigger giver, and to appreciate the little things all the more."
