I never imagined I would author a book. But here is “Family Stories for God’s Glory,” with my name on the cover! Starting with childhood stories of myself and the young boy who would one day become my husband, it is a compilation of real-life stories featuring our children and grandchildren. Now, at eighty-five years of age, my last story is not my last story but hints of the best that is to come. Each story portrays the presence and power of God. I invite you to join me on my journey of how it all happened.

I began writing this book before I knew I was writing a book. I wrote about my experiences for my own therapy, sometimes to preserve precious memories, and sometimes just for the joy of writing.

“How long did it take to write it?” I’m often asked by interested friends.

“Oh, about fifty years,” I’ll tell them, and then explain that some stories I wrote long ago, but never dreamed they would eventually be part of a book. The majority of stories, however, were written in recent years.

This book is for all ages. From serious to hilarious, it brings hope to all situations. You will enjoy the story about our two-year-old grandson when he thought God had made a terrible mistake. Hopefully, you will know God better and realize how much he cares about the little, “insignificant” things of life as well as the major crises.

I plan to blog weekly about the contents of the book. Come along! I’d love to have you join me on the journey.

Blessings, Charlotte
