Former Things: Christian Inspiration for All Ages
When you lose everything... sometimes God gives you a brand-new beginning.
After the death of her husband, Jean feels lost—adrift in a world that doesn’t make sense anymore. But when she overhears a pastor preaching about revival, something stirs deep within her soul.
Maybe her life isn’t over… maybe it’s just beginning.
Armed with a Bible, a prayer journal, and a stubborn streak of faith, Jean climbs into her little blue Beetle—along with her opinionated cat, King Louie—and hits the open road. Her mission? To spark revival wherever God leads.
Her daughter calls her reckless. Her sister says she’s lost her mind. But Jean knows the she’s found her purpose. And she won’t stop until the fire of God’s love spreads far and wide.
Of course, the road to revival isn’t easy. Doubt, grief, and the whispers of the enemy threaten to derail her. But with every mile, Jean discovers that when you trust God with your whole heart, He can turn even the most broken journey into a beautiful testimony.
Former Things, Book 1 in the Road Trip Revival series, is an uplifting Christian novel full of hope, humor, and heart. Perfect for readers who love faith-filled stories, quirky heroines, and proof that God’s not done with you yet—no matter your age or past.

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.
