520 |a David Anderson has been a popular columnist in his parish for many years. Writing about his everyday experiences -- like cleaning up the yard after a storm, waiting in the doctor's office, even helping his teenage daughters pick out fall dresses -- he explores how the divine surprises us in these ordinary events. Breakfast Epiphanies is a collection of forty-one true-life tales. In these inspiring stories, Anderson writes with a great deal of humor about relationships -- both within his family and within the community he serves. He tells us about a family argument that turns ugly, an awkward but triumphant date to his first father-daughter dance, and the night his church burned down. He also writes about personal spirituality, but always from the ground up. A story begins in some ordinary event -- listening to a baby cry in a crowded airplane -- and opens out to a new, sometimes offbeat awareness of the divine. No matter what faith we practice, we all yearn to find splendor in the ordinary. Breakfast Epiphanies speaks to the hearts and minds in all of us
