A small act of kindness can become the moment someone remembers for the rest of their life.
A stranger offers a ride. A child saves a seat. Someone pauses in a grocery aisle to ask, “Are you okay?”
In The People We Almost Missed, Elisha Trask shares moving stories about the ordinary people and unexpected moments that remind us we are seen, loved, and never alone. Through encounters shaped by faith, family, grief, motherhood, friendship, and compassion, these stories invite us to notice the people around us—and the quiet ways God can work through a simple hello, a listening ear, or a small act of kindness.
Whether you’re looking for an uplifting Christian book, a heartfelt gift for a friend, or a reminder to slow down and see the good in everyday life, these stories offer comfort, hope, and encouragement.
Because sometimes the moments that matter most are the ones we almost miss.
