Pigeon Feathers by John Updike

Pigeon Feathers by John Updike

This book has been inspired by readings received from Jesus starting in 1932, by two ladies that were living in England who were suffering through hard times. Jesus came to the ladies each day for a year with messages of encouragement. Each reading has been compressed into a shorter version, a thought that can be carried through a normal work day that helps you focus on Jesus and the love that He has for you. Each reading is up to your own interpretation and belief. Read one thought a day, think about its meaning, and remember He was counseling these ladies. His guidance is such that you too can use it.

JOHN UPDIKE was the author of more than sixty books, eight of them collections of poetry. His novels, including The Centaur, Rabbit Is Rich, and Rabbit at Rest, won the Pulitzer Prize, the National Book Award, the National Book Critics Circle Award, and the William Dean Howells Medal of the American Academy of Arts and Letters. He died in January 2009.
