Believe it or not, Turtle Heart turns 1 year old today. I don’t think I could have thought of a better birthday gift for her than winning a Golden Scroll award. She took third place in the memoir category.
I want you to buy a copy of Turtle Heart. Not because she won an award, but because I want to start honest discussions among God’s people about subjects we are often reluctant to talk about. I want to open a door to nonbelievers to think about who God is and where he is, which is not far from every one of us.
A few people have told me Turtle Heart gave them insight on sharing Jesus with others. Others said it made them uncomfortable, but in a good way–that it opened their eyes to their own prejudices.
From Turtle Heart, you will gain:
- Deepened understanding of Mennonite and Ojibwa cultures.
- Courage to ask the hard questions and to think unconventionally.
- The sense that a simple faith in God is more powerful than any religious dogma.
- Insight on how to share Jesus and grace to SEE Jesus in OTHERS.
- Hope, in a fractured world, that love can span gaps and heal wounds.
- A story of two flawed and beautiful women—of confusion and revelation, hairpins and hangovers, separated seating and nunny-bunny schools—that will settle in your memory for a lifetime.
You can buy a copy of Turtle Heart on Amazon for $15. OR, in honor of Turtle Heart’s birthday, you can buy 2 autographed copies from me, one for you and one to give to a friend, for $20. Maybe that friend you get into deep discussions with. Maybe that friend you want to show Jesus.
