Amish Peace: Simple Wisdom for a Complicated World is officially released today!

Off to a running start, if I do say so myself!

If…when…you get a chance to read it…I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it. This book changed me.

For example, yesterday I was having a very non-Amish Peace-like day. Something important I was working on fell apart and fizzled to a death…and I was distracted and bothered all afternoon.

More than a little ironic on the release-eve of my book about peace!

So I took a long walk and tried to puzzle out why I felt so distressed. Two important questions came to mind:

Where was my focus? (On myself…not on God)

What was the simpler solution?

Answering those questions actually helped me to let go of the frustration I’d been feeling. That’s the kind of “takeaway value” in the book, even for the one who wrote it!

Then I woke up this morning to an e-mail with disappointing news about another project. This time, though, I shook it off.

Release date or no release date, life just keeps truckin’ on. Know what I mean?
