Read this book; you won’t regret it!” — Lila J.Who Are the “Rest of Us”?The “rest of us” don’t usually read Bible study books. We might not attend church every Sunday, but we try to live with quiet integrity and faith. We may know the words to old hymns but aren’t that much into singing them.We’re not especially drawn to organized religion—we’re more about relationships. Our faith shows up more in everyday action than in rituals—maybe through volunteering, supporting a cause, or showing up for people who need us.During the pandemic Ann Meyer led Bible studies via Zoom. Her friends discovered that even without attending church, they could still find real meaning in her authentic stories of Jesus and the Bible’s bold, complex characters. Their tales are relevant to the everyday struggles we all face.Twenty-one of those lessons are now available in book form.

As she skimmed through some of her great-great-grandparents’ dusty sermon books, she realized that the hopes and struggles of 1870s settlers still resonate today. While her writing is fresh and entertaining, a bit of old-time religion is lurking under some of the lines.For ages teen and upProfits from this book will be shared between Kiva.org or MFSC.org (Feed My Starving Children)
