Sam has a crisis of faith
Sam Gardner is totally disillusioned with his Quaker church in
Harmony
, Indiana. The elders want to use the church's money for a gymnasium instead of helping the poor and needy. On top of that, Sam is gradually losing his faith in God. Despite his admission of unbelief to the elders of the church, they decide to keep him on as pastor. Meanwhile one of the devout couples of the church win the lottery and wrestle with the question as to whether they should accept the money. Another family is bereft when the mother in the home deserts them in order to run off with another man. Author
Philip
Gulley
takes these plot threads and gently weaves them into a gentle and amusing tapestry of the lives of a group of Quakers is central Indiana. He pokes fun at religious institutions and people, but does so with a gentle and loving spirit. For those who enjoy tales of small towns and the people who live there, this is a recommended series.
