Former Things: Christian Inspiration for All Ages
When you lose everything you have... you might just gain the world.
In Book 1 of the Road Trip Revival Series, Former Things, Jean finds herself just a bit lost after the death of her husband. Suddenly alone--and lonely--she doesn't quite know where her place in the world is. But when she hears a pastor talk about a revival, something changes.
Now she's on a mission from God.
Friends say she's crazy. Her daughter is worried and her sister thinks she needs to be on medications. But Jean knows better. And yeah, she is crazy--crazy for Jesus!
And she wants to tell everyone about Him.
Determined to be that pebble in the pond starting a revival tidal wave that will engulf the globe, Jean sets out in her little blue Beetle with her not-so-trusty sidekick, an arrogant cat named King Louie, ready to make the big splash and flood the world with God's love.
But will the enemy first drown her in self-doubt and fear?
If you like stories about slightly sarcastic "well-seasoned" ladies, then Road Trip Revival series is for you! Biblically truthful and Christian-based, the series is safe for the entire family.

Five stars. Wish i could give 10. This is one of the most uplifting books I have ever read. Love Jean and am inspired by her interactions, both with God and with the people she meets along the way. Her relationship and interactions with her sister are a hoot. Typical siblings in many ways. The entire book intersperses faith and humor effectively I have already obtained the next book.

It was so much better than I expected
This book was recommended to me. I wanted a quick read, so gave it a try. By the end of the second chapter I couldn't put it down. I read the entire book in three days. My only regret is that I can't read it for the first time again. Now I have to buy book 2.
