Perplexed Pastor's Wife

The Sky Beneath My Feet

Beth is a pastor’s wife.  Her husband, who works at a megachurch, has the month of October off.  She figures that the family will go someplace to take a much needed vacation.  What she doesn’t realize is that her husband will spend his month in their garden shed praying and not speaking to anyone.  She doesn’t know what to make of this and he won’t tell her.  Her two sons are astonished by their father’s behavior.  While her husband is holed up in the shed, she tries to figure out what his actions mean.  She must deal with her younger son’s experimentation with marijuana and her older son’s falling in love.  And then, there’s her husband’s friend with the job proposition for him—what is she to tell him?

This book, like Lisa Samson’s other books includes rather quirky, but loveable characters who struggle with everyday challenges.  The plot takes several turns, but comes to a satisfying conclusion.  I found it entertaining and thought-provoking as well.  I highly recommend it and thank the publisher for the free copy.
