Most of us are trying to put together the
jigsaw puzzle we call life without a very
important piece. Over time this becomes
incredibly frustrating. In this extraordinary
book, Matthew Kelly powerfully
demonstrates that we cannot live the life we
have imagined, or experience the joy we
yearn for, unless we learn to tend the soul.
From there, with his classic style of
practical wisdom, he teaches us how to
remedy this problem.
Join other women Monday nights at
7:00pm in the Family Center as we
explore this book.
