One Reader Says...
“And there I sit, 180 pages and 4 hours later, with tears in my eyes, and the first thing I do instinctively is give God thanks for you.
Your book shows that people’s lives are so intertwined, that the burdens we all share are in fact lighter for being shared, enabling us to breathe, and how on the flip-side, human beings in community truly do share in the experience of one another’s joy.
I know that many people are going to be touched, moved, called, and comforted by your book. Your story is a gift to me, and my faith is strengthened by reading it. Reflecting, discerning, and acknowledging the divine in the day-to-day of my own life is a relatively new thing for me (but oddly, something for which I have longed since childhood)
Reluctant Pilgrim is like a clear reflection, of who we are as God’s children and how God is continually at work in our lives – with glimpses into how we ourselves become the hands, eyes, or voice of God for each others. God IS present, weaving our lives and creating new life and possibility.
Thank you for real hope, rooted in faith,”
