Beef Stew

A Wayward duck, an old blue, rusted truck, and a four-year-old, evangelistic boy have nothing in common. They're not related or all are not animated. But this book reveals some possible ties.  Part I Shares humor, newsworthy values and can often cause you to chuckle, and even to LOL.  Part II Offers much of the same, and adds some deeper, more direct lessons in patience, contentment, and direction related to spiritual guidance in the more important things of life. If you're curious about anything revealed above, and if you like short reads, many can be read with your morning java or tea. This book full of 37 short stories provides all of the above and much more.   Note #1 If you fail to read all the way until the end, you'll miss a certain heart wrenching story of giving grace and forgiveness to an older man, Mr. Sam. He's someone most people will find him to be undeserving of neither grace nor forgiveness.   Note #2 All given names have been changed to preserve their identities.   God willing, this is book #1 in a series of three.
