Southern Comfort: Stories of family, friendship, fiery trials, and faith

Penned by the beloved storyteller and newspaper columnist, Lynn Walker Gendusa, this book is full of short, heartwarming stories plucked from her life. With her signature transparency, Lynn invites readers into her world, which turns out to be the same world we all inhabit--a world full of scrapes and bruises, love and laughter, and weeping and dancing all tumbling together through our days. Lynn's compassion and warmth shine through as she acknowledges suffering, as she reminds us that we all belong to one family (the human family), and as she calls us to serve each other with kindness.\nIn the end this book is a celebration of life. Sure, our lives are full of messiness and pain, but this book reminds us, most vigorously, that our lives are also full of color and laughter and joy. With humility, love, and a great sense of humor, Lynn shows us not only how to survive this sometimes-crazy life but also how to thrive.
