Peace Like a River<\/i> by Leif Enger.<\/a> <\/strong>One of Kate’s favorite novels, Peace Like a River<\/i> follows the Land family, headed by a father who can work miracles, as they search for their son\/brother who’s on the lam. We just finished reading the book aloud as a family. The kids didn’t like it, but then, heavy on the lyricism and light on the action, it’s not designed to be a book for kids. A warm, wholesome meditation on faith and the familial bond, I really enjoyed it myself and look forward to reading it again on my own.<\/p>\n

“Above the Clouds of Pompeii” by Bear’s Den.<\/a> <\/strong>A song about loss from the perspective of a father and son who grieve the death of their wife\/mother. A rare tune that pairs rich poetry with strong music, everything about this song, from the Pompeii metaphor, to the lyrics, to the perfect banjo element, is a real masterwork. It’ll hit you right in the feels. <\/div>\n

“The Thrill of Defeat” by Tim Alberta.<\/a><\/strong> A lifelong Detroit Lions fan explores what it means to be loyal to a losing team. The key takeaway:<\/p>\n

For Lions fans\u2014and, I started to realize, for Lions players\u2014all of the losing has formed bonds that winning never could.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In regards to what it’s like for the players to play on a losing team, the article reminded me of the podcast we did a few years ago about what you can learn from losing<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Flint and Tinder 365 Corduroy Pant.<\/strong><\/a> Fall is coming, so it’s time to revamp the wardrobe for crisper weather. Corduroy is my go-to fabric for fall.<\/a> It’s soft, warm, and cozy and makes you feel like a 1970s boss. If you’re looking for a pair of solid corduroy pants, check out the Flint and Tinder 365 Corduroy Pant. I’ve had a pair for a few years, and they’re still going strong. You can pair them with a button-down and chukkas or a t-shirt and sneakers. <\/p>\n

Quote of the Week<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Evils in the journey of life are like the hills which alarm travelers on the road. Both appear great at a distance, but when we approach them we find they are far less insurmountable than we had conceived.<\/p>\n
