What can this hard - earned innocence be but grace, a quick respite from the trammels of time ? This is, to be sure, what Adam and Eve learned from their .Īmericans are addicted to happiness.
James Wheeler's aha!-moment is our revelation: certain stories are like candlewicks-common, ordinary, and seemingly of little value. Will he glimpse wholeness and harmony? Will he come to know healing? Earning Innocence invites readers to wrestle with such questions and view their lives through the lens of friends, family, and faith. As a Moravian pastor, husband, and father, Wheeler strives to embrace his loved ones, even as his anxieties threaten to push them away. A man of tested faith, he hopes in the unseen and wrestles with paradox.
In the pages of his journal, he searches for peace in the shadows of the past and struggles with his current challenges. Was it tragic? Joyous? Heartbreaking? Inspiring? A combination of emotions swirled together and splattered across your heart, soul, and mind? Reverend James Wheeler writes and reflects on such a monumental week. Think of the most memorable week of your life. Earning Innocence A Novel Andrew Taylor-Troutman Earning innocEncE a novel copyright © 2015 andrew Taylor-Troutman.
