Karen and I are so excited about the upcoming launch of our new book, Unexpected: What to Do When Life Disrupts Your Plans, releasing Tuesday, September 16th. But we need your help…and we want to give you four gifts for helping us.
What is Unexpected About?
Everyone encounters the Unexpected! Whether it’s losing a job, receiving a bad report from a doctor, a late-night phone call, a relationship ending, a financial setback, or a dashed dream, “unexpected” shows up in unwelcome ways. Sometimes it feels like it’s raining rocks, and we’re doing our best to dodge a fatal blow. The question is, how do we respond when life unexpectedly disrupts our plans?
In Unexpected, we share our personal stories of two traumatic disruptions. Karen shares how her peace was stolen during a robbery when five young men broke into her house, and then dragged her out of the shower at gunpoint. I share my journey of simultaneous congestive heart failure and pulmonary failure despite years of annual check-ups with good reports. From our stories of unexpected disruption, we share seven valuable takeaways that we’ve learned along the way: Prayer, Trust, Perspective, Family, Community, Purpose, and Legacy.
Each insight is extremely practical, and each chapter sheds transparent light on the ups and downs of our journey. Whether you’re navigating an unexpected disruption, or your life is going great, these practical insights will inspire hope, offer wisdom, and deepen your faith.
