The Road to Santa Clara

Kari is continuing her retelling of our story, “The Road to Santa Clara,” detailing our experiences in leaving all for a ministry opportunity a few years ago. The lessons learned along the way have proved to be invaluable, and although we wouldn’t sign up for it again, we wouldn’t trade it for the world. It is a redemptive story of God’s sustaining grace and the depth of friendship in the midst of confusion and frustrating circumstances. (Note: names and places have changed; e.g., we didn’t move to Santa Clara specifically.)

Update: anyone interested in buying it can do so through Lulu, via Amazon
