On duty as an ER nurse in 2002, Farnsworth identified her son, Spencer, minutes after he was pronounced dead. He was the unintended target of a murder. So begins her memoir, The Greater Weight of Glory, an extraordinary journey that explores the power of faith and forgiveness with rare candor and courage. In 2016, WCVBTV Boston's Chronicle interviewed Robin and one of the men in prison for her son's murder, highlighting their "unlikely friendship." It is a story you won't forget.
"The Greater Weight of Glory is a story of courage and human frailty. As the reader, I assumed I knew where Farnsworth's journey would take me. I was wrong. I couldn't put the book down until the last page was read -- every word devoured, some twice. This memoir will leave you with a lightness of spirit unimaginable for an account surrounding the death of a child. It is a must read for reasons you can't yet imagine." - Lit Lovers Review
Impossible to put down. Incredible story which was beautifully written. Honest, really honest. Will make you cry. An important book for both Christians and non Christians to read. The message is universal. Thank you Robin. - Dr. Nate Rudman, Amazon review
