Trust builds as neighbors leave the disaster of Hurricane Harvey. Faith is tested as they relocate to Kansas. Locals stir up sinister rumors that develop into unexpected trouble.
Can Ethan and Kate obtain God's peace that surpasses understanding?
Do Sal and Maria remain true to their friends?
Can Kate forgive an entire town?
Although Mind of a Neighbor is fiction, the struggles of the characters are very real.
Enjoy the final book in this series. All three books in this series are available in large print. No profanity, and all are published by Proof Productions. I would greatly appreciate you giving a review on Amazon! (On Mind of a Neighbor and any of the others as well!)
An inspiring ending is always possible in any situation...when you know the promises God has given...to see us through this evil world.

Mine are ready! Almost time for Samaritan's Purse Operation Christmas Child Shoeboxes! This year I am doing boxes for three boys and three girls. Love this program!

Loved our speaking engagement with the Caddo Lake Historical Society in Jefferson, Texas today with fellow speakers, Dottie Carter, myself, Lynn Hobbs , and
Mary Humphrey. Informative and amusing experiences were shared. Laughter flowed throughout the meeting while enjoying stories from the three of us about living on Caddo Lake. Awesome group, awesome evening!
