Jesus Can Heal My Heart is a story about Jesus' ability to emotionally heal a little boy who is facing open heart surgery. The little boy finds Jesus in the garden of his heart.

Shea has had four open-heart surgeries for a congenital heart condition. After her last surgery, she felt the need for emotional healing and created a garden space where she could be with Jesus. After working with a community support group for families of pediatric heart patients, she knew this healing could be received by children.
