<p>What are the tangible moments in life in which God has been so real to you, you can almost hear His heart beating? When has He provided such an unlikely solution to a dilemma, the answer had to be His doing and as a result of no other source? Pulitzer Prize nominee Kay Moore, author of "Way Back in the Country" and "Way Back in the Country Garden", collections of family recipes and the stories behind them, now inspires readers to preserve God-moments in their own lives and to capture recipes of the foods that were served accompanying those life-changing times. Using illustrations from her own experiences, she contends that God shows up in quiet, everyday-life lessons as well as in miracles that may not be of the Damascus Road scale but nonetheless make a permanent imprint on the human heart. As with her other Way Back books, Kay's newest is packed with recipes for tantalizing foods, all of which are accompanied by small vignettes describing the context in which they were served and which illustrate the bond of food, family, and faith.</p>

What do you say to a mother you've never seen? "Gathering the Missing Pieces in an Adopted Life" brims cover to cover with true stories of trial and triumph in the search for birth families by adoptees. Written by an adopted Pulitzer Prize nominee. "Only a few days before I boarded the plane, I for the first time in my life had looked at the face of an adult whom I physically resembled. When photos of my birth mother arrived in the mail, they were greeted by shrieks of joy and wonder by my husband and young son, who peered on the face that stared at him from the photograph and mused, 'So that's where I get my brown eyes'." Ever surrounded by the love and security of the only family she had ever known, Kay Moore wondered constantly about her unknown past. Would her birth mother even be willing to meet her? Would her adoptive parents think she was ungrateful for needing so desperately to know? How would changing attitudes and new laws affect her search? That search led Kay to other adoptees, adoptive parents, and birth families. She discovered that her feelings were the shared legacy of people everywhere who want the whole truth about who they are. Their stories, told her, yield a world of inspiration and practical direction which Kay presents with a sensitivity possible only from one who has "been through it" herself. She knows what questions you'll need to answer for a successful search and includes a listing of resources you can use along the way. You'll see just how to pull together the missing pieces in your own past and fully discover your God-given heritage.
