Navigating the events of everyday life, we who have chosen the Christian path or are seeking faith may sometimes feel a sense of disillusionment with the relevance of spirituality in today’s world.

Brimming with personal insight, Three-Word Wisdom is a love-invested collection of twenty-eight stories that encompass the authors’ lives, from Joy’s heartfelt reflections and the birth of her beloved son with Down syndrome, to Bernie’s thought-provoking experiences as a father and teacher. Each story is coupled with an inspirational quote from the ages of literature and scripture that is aimed at encouraging reflection and unlocking emotion, guiding us towards a renewed sense of faith. Whether you are a new or longstanding believer, a parent or teacher, Three-Word Wisdom provides an intimate and approachable perspective from which to find inspiration and fulfillment in your daily relationships with others, yourself, the world, and God.
