Navigating the events of everyday life, we who have chosen the Christian path or are seeking faith may sometimes feel a sense of disillusionment with the relevance of spirituality in today’s world. Even when faced with great disappointment or loss, it may be hard to remember Christ’s teachings when we need them most. As Joy Barker and Bernie Potvin show us, however, the wisdom of scripture underlies all our experiences — every joy, sorrow, failure, and choice. Brimming with personal insight, Three-Word Wisdom is a love-invested collection of twenty-eight stories that encompass the authors’ lives, from Joy’s heartfelt reflections and the birth of her beloved son with Down syndrome, to Bernie’s thought-provoking experiences as a father and teacher. Each story is coupled with an inspirational quote from the ages of literature and scripture that is aimed at encouraging reflection and unlocking emotion, guiding us towards a renewed sense of faith. Whether you are a new or longstanding believer, a parent or teacher, Three-Word Wisdom provides an intimate and approachable perspective from which to find inspiration and fulfillment in your daily relationships with others, yourself, the world, and God.
