Life Can Be Everything You Never Expected. The stories in this book, collected from people of different ages and backgrounds, are entertaining and inspiring. It is a book by 63 people, written for everyone.

A pastor and a tap dancer, both aspiring writers, met through their teenagers and began a long-distance friendship.  Given Moments, their first collaboration, is about finding grace, hope, and humor in life's unplanned moments.



Excerpt

Marie: I had been a pastor for about a month when I asked Karol Pierce where he had left his arm.

Karol's wife, Claudette, attended my church regularly. She said I was welcome to visit them, but I should not expect Karol to attend church or to take communion.

Karol met me at the door of their farmhouse and welcomed me in. Homemade vegetable soup simmered on the stove. Karol offered me a beer and Claudette swatted him with the dishtowel.

Dessert was some of those rectangular pink wafer cookies.

"I love these things," said Karol, reaching for another with his left hand.

"So Karol. What happened to your arm? Do you mind telling the story?"

Scott Seeke Review
Given Moments is one of those rare books that changes the way we think about life. Each chapter, each story, will help everyone who reads it see the magic in the tiny moments, and feel again the awe and mystery of the big ones. We are blessed all the time, every day, and we just forget. Reading this book reminded me how blessed I really am, all the time, and I hope it does the same for you.

Scott Seeke, pastor, devotional writer, and co-writer of Get Low, a 2010 Sony Pictures film starring Robert Duval, Bill Murray, and Sissy Spacek
