Home to Harmony
Thousands
of readers have fallen in love
with acclaimed Quaker writer Philip Gulley's Home to Harmony, a
charming novel
of a small town with a kindly spirit whose endearing and eccentric
residents
are like old friends. Written in a warm, down-home style, this novel
chronicles
the moving and humorous world of Quaker pastor Sam Gardner in his first
year back
in his hometown, Harmony, Indiana. Gardner is offered a job when the
town's
Quaker pastor dies in an accident. (Both his parents had died of heart
problems, which he feared would happen to him, so he'd begun to jog and
was hit
by a truck)! It is easy for readers to fall in love with the charming
world of Harmony;
the small town that hosts what Booklist called "the biggest collection
of
crusty, lovable characters..." The author describes in a warm style the
moving and humorous adventures the pastor encounters, tackling the
sticky
issues of grace, faith, and forgiveness through skillful storytelling
and subtly
introducing lessons on the power of relationships with each other and
with God
