Responsibility—that one word sums up Wade Spencer’s existence since his father’s death. Thrust into the role of head of the family, he’s keeping the farm running and his younger siblings in line. When a life-threatening illness attacks his momma, he readily steps in to support her. Sure would be nice to have someone by his side to help carry the load, but all that responsibility hasn’t left much time for dating. Or maybe it’s just his reserved nature holding him back.
Dani Connor had gotten everything she ever dreamed of as a child. Married her high school sweetheart, had a sweet little girl she could shower with all the love she’d been denied by her own parents, and built a life far away from the farm. When those dreams come crashing down, she realizes that back at home on the farm is where she should have stayed.
It doesn’t take long after Dani’s return to Shiloh for Wade to realize she’s the one God has in mind, but Dani will have to get over past hurts and take another chance if she wants Wade to be part of her new dreams.
Award-winning author and teacher Michael Frickstad brings you an uplifting look on how to cultivate Peace, Hope, Integrity, and Love into your life. Read it and be inspired!
Like the ravages of puberty, chaos can be conquered. When things are starkly, mind-bendingly nuts, there are ways through the mayhem, ways to help you confront, tolerate, and eventually overwhelm the forces trying to annihilate you. Everything we do, everyone we meet, everywhere we go is a lesson on how to live productive and satisfying lives.
Finding PHIL is one person’s story of learning to recognize and apply those truths.
In his new book, writer, teacher, and speech coach Michael Frickstad relates how he overcame the commotion and frustration of chaos by heeding the inner voice some people call God, others call their guardian angel, and still others call Mom.
His unexpected renewal tales—from a second-grade show-and-tell to surviving puberty, from choosing a career to surviving a stroke, from loneliness to wooing the perfect spouse, and many more—reveal the secret of how the four lifestyle traits of peace, hope, integrity, and love can transform life from confusion to joy.
By incorporating the wisdom of celebrated thinkers, the warmth of a budding romance, the brutal consequences of failure and arrogance, plus a healthy dose of pure silliness, Finding PHIL uncovers the light inherent in our darkest moments.
