Far From the Tree...

I recently had the priviledge of reading an amazing book. Far from the Tree by Adam Solomon is a heavily researched but compassionate look at a variety of families faced with learning from the inside out about the differences that call us to love and tolerance. The book requires a bit of commitment, but I felt my humanity was expanded on in the process. Please explore this link www.farfromthetree.com for stories about some of the challenges that today's families face.

Enjoy this season of family...
