About this ebook
An inspiring personal story of overcoming hardship and finding comfort in the midst of chaos: “Great practical ideas . . . They’ll work for you too” (Dave Ramsey).
“SANCTUARY! SANCTUARY! SANCTUARY!” yells Quasimodo in The Hunchback of Notre Dame as he enters the cathedral to escape his tormentors. Sanctuary: A place of asylum and immunity. A place of peace and unconditional love. A place to escape from the everyday stressors of life. An attainable retreat accomplished through intentional living.
Creating a Haven of Peace provides a formula for creating Sanctuary in your own home—an escape from the busyness and chaos surrounding our families today. Here are very attainable steps to creating the life you desire—as well as real-life stories and advice that explore such topics as:
When the business failed, the IRS was knocking at the door, the kids were hungry, and they had borrowed a beat up car from a friend, Joanne Fairchild Miller assumed this was the beginning of poverty and embarrassment. Instead, it turned out to be the wakeup call for her family’s greatest and most successful adventure. Here, she shares her own personal experience of how “The Ugly Year” led to unexpected life change, and how you too can change your own life story.
