<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Defining Moments is my testimony as to the goodness and grace of God throughout my life. There are numerous stories about the importance of forgiveness. I was born to an unwed mother in 1936 and was the object of verbal and emotional abuse for years. I carried those scars with me until God healed me and made me whole. <br>This book is about growing in faith and living a victorious life as God intended for all of His children. It's also about family. I'm the hinge that connects my ancestors from 1886 to their descendants of 2021. I relate vivid details of my visits to my great grandparent's farm as a child. There are chapters devoted to the three generations of strong and courageous women who preceded me and helped me become the woman I am today.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>As I've reflected over my 84 years I realize that certain events and people influenced some of the decisions I made later in life. Even as a child I was subconsciously saying things to myself such things as I will never do that or I admire those women so much I want to be like them or This is what's really important or I will never act like that person.<br>These are what I call defining moments. Thus, the title Defining Moments was born. Even though I didn't realize it at the time, I was forming decisions and opinions based on those seemingly insignificant events and people.<br>This book includes my family history, my personal history, and my spiritual history. My family history is based on what I saw and heard, as well as information from others. How I wish I had asked some questions and found out more. I recently read that when the oldest member of a family dies, a library burns to the ground! At least some of my stories will remain alive and can be passed on.<br>My personal history includes some of the incredible people I've met along the way including my first love as well as the man I was married to for 57 years.<br>My faith history is my journey into the heart of God as I came to know the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit on a personal level.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Pat was born to an unwed mother in 1936 which was not socially acceptable at the time.
