Essays on Awe, Faith, and Family from America’s Great Outdoors (and Some Hotel Rooms)
Award-winning essayist Sarah M. Wells presents an uplifting, honest, and humor-filled anthology chronicling an unforgettable family road trip across America. Guided by hope, ambition, acceptance, and joy, Wells traverses both the heartland and the inner landscape of her soul as she reaches the age of forty. Reflecting on the choices, limitations, and freedoms that shape an abundant life filled with purpose and meaning, she reminds readers that it’s not the destination, but the journey itself, that truly matters.
Praise for To Say One Million Times, Wow:
Wells writes with openness, authenticity, and humor (the kind that makes me burst out laughing). One of my most repeated phrases these days is, “If anyone would have told me life would be like this. . .” This sandwich generation stuff is HARD. Unexpected job, family, and health transitions are HARD. Navigating faith in this culturally fraught moment is HARD. But in Wells I find an understanding companion and guide who opens my eyes to awe in the midst of the crazy. Love this book.
