Choosing Life in the Wilderness, as the title conveys is a choice. We can choose to be defined by our struggles, or to invite and allow them to be transformed into more than we could ever imagine.

I encourage you to read this book with the eyes of your heart. Allow it to captivate you as you accept Daphne’s invitation to take the adventurous journey with her and her family. May it inspire you to reflect more deeply on your own journey, and in that, to perhaps find a peace beyond that which you have previously known with added resilience and strength.
