Grace Happens by Tom Allen
It's all grace: fender-benders, being told to stay after school, calling 911, 12-step groups, the Easter goat, forgetting your suit for the wedding--even sticking your finger in the electric outlet. Come along on a newspaper columnist's adventures, both whimsical and serious, as he attempts to spot glimpses of the grace that surrounds us every day. If we have eyes to see, ears to hear, and a heart that's at least a little bit open, grace can turn up in the most unexpected ways and places. We can sense God's presence. And it almost always brings a smile, even if paramedics are involved.
He’s carved out such a niche here at the Richmond Times-Dispatch as a frequent contributor to our Faith & Values and In My Shoes columns, and even occasionally to our op-ed pagesNow, he has taken it a step further by compiling many of those columns into his first book, “Grace Happens: Adventures in Everyday Living.” -- Bill Lohmann * A way with words *
