When Jeremy Camp lost his beloved wife, Melissa, just months after their wedding, the last thing he wanted to do was sing praise to God. But even as he struggled through unimaginable grief and fought to hold on to his faith, God had other plans: Pick up your guitar. I have something for you to write. Jeremy obeyed, pouring out his heart, writing about the hope that God was still there, even in his deepest grief. The song he wrote that day, "I Still Believe", has gone on to inspire millions around the world. This is the story behind that song and the movie that was inspired by it.

The occasion was a big birthday. And it inspired two close friends to get together in Dharamsala for a talk about something very important to them. The friends were His Holiness the Dalai Lama and Archbishop Desmond Tutu. The subject was joy. Both winners of the Nobel Prize, both great spiritual masters and moral leaders of our time, they are also known for being among the most infectiously happy people on the planet.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 188
When Jenny inherits her estranged grandmother’s cottage in Sherwood Forest, she has nothing to lose - no money, no job, no friends, no family to speak of, and zero self-respect. Things can only get better.... Her grumpy but decidedly handsome new neighbour, Mack, has a habit of bestowing unsolicited good deeds on her. And when Jenny is welcomed into a rather unusual book club, life seems to finally be getting more interesting. Instead of reading, the members pledge to complete individual challenges before Christmas.

While American church culture (and American culture at large) seems largely designed for the extroverted, it's estimated that half of the American population is introverted, and they're often left wondering how, even if, they fit in the kingdom of God. As one of them, popular radio host Brant Hansen brings news. It's wonderful, refreshing, and never-been-said-this-way-before good news.

Very inspiring
Since I'm from the same geographical area that Sara was from and share some of her health problems, I really wanted to read this story. Sarah was an inspiration to those who knew her personally and through social media. She deliberately chose not to succumb to the depression or despair that her suffering might have caused her. She was a person who was grateful for life and inspired others to be as well. At first I didn't care for the apparent lack of "flow" of the book, but then realized it was written by someone else about Sara based on their friendship and also Sara's blogs, etc on the internet. Once this was clear the book was really enjoyable and inspirational. You get to know Sara, her troubles and the genius of her attitude towards life's difficulties. I strongly recommend this to anyone with chronic or terminal illness or other serious trials. I found myself thinking over and over "WOW I wish I could think that way!" Thanks to the author who shared this story with those of us who did not know of Sara while she was on earth!

Great book!
Very good book that makes you stop and appreciate the small things in life! We take for granted our purpose in life is bigger than the day to day wants and our busy schedules. We need to stop and appreciate what we have today!
