Gulley is a Quaker minister who lives in a small town in Indiana. I love his humorous novels set in the small town of Harmony (starting with Home to Harmony). This, however, is nonfiction – a collection of essays on life, love, community and faith. I appreciate the way Gulley draws from the small experiences in life. I suspect his sermons would be much like conversing with a neighbor on a front porch, sharing lessons learned over the years. This little volume, like much of Gulley’s writing, inspires me to try to be a better person, kinder, more tolerant, more industrious, more generous (especially with my time). His works also remind me to stop and recognize all the many ways I am blessed, and to be thankful. One thing I’m thankful for is that Philip Gulley has shared the gift of his insight with us, his readers.
