Deeper Moments Along the Way: The Stories Behind the Stories: 2 - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

Some stories tell you what happened. Others take you back and ask what it all meant.

In Deeper Moments Along the Way: The Stories Behind the Stories, Cheryl A. McKenzie returns to the memories first shared in Moments Along the Way-but this time, she stays a little longer.

At seventy-one, Cheryl looks back at the girl she was, the woman she became, and the experiences that shaped her: a childhood filled with love, instability, faith and family; becoming pregnant at fifteen and making the heartbreaking decision to place her son for adoption; building a marriage and raising a family; the astonishing day that son found her thirty years later; friendships that became sisterhood; careers that changed as often as she was ready to "rearrange the furniture"; frightening moments when prayer was all she had; and the ordinary memories of a world that has quietly disappeared.

With honesty, humor and faith, Cheryl explores not only what happened, but what those experiences left behind. She discovers that some wounds heal without disappearing, that our parents were people finding their way too, and that sometimes God answers a prayer long before we recognize the answer.

There is laughter here, because there has always been laughter in Cheryl's life. There is heartbreak, because no honest life story escapes it. And woven through it all is a marriage of more than fifty years, a family that kept growing, and a faith that remained even when life didn't make sense.

Deeper Moments Along the Way is not simply a collection of memories. It is one woman's invitation to look backward with the wisdom that only time can give-and perhaps to see your own story a little differently.

The first book told what happened.

This one tells what it meant.
