The Ordinary Road Terri Gilbert Broome

For too many years, Terri Broome lived in open rebellion against God. She married at twenty-one, hoping that her husband could fulfill her and quiet the gnawing unrest in her soul. Instead, she remained unhappy, and the marriage ended in divorce. Terri blithely continued living her life until God intervened. Down-to-earth and brutally honest, The Ordinary Road chronicles what happened when Terri decided to give everything to God, no matter the cost. She shares how, at the age of twenty-two, God found her and washed her clean from her sin. She reconciled with her husband and became a wife and mother. Yet Terri still had to surrender all to God, even down to the smallest aspects of her life, and it wasn't an easy process. With gentle humor, she describes how she wrote a letter to the IRS to confess tax evasion, rooted out hypocrisy, and tried to focus on talking to God instead of always talking about God. She began inviting neighbors to her home for Bible study, and soon the Holy Spirit started to work in her life in ways Terri never could have imagined. Inspiring and unforgettable, The Ordinary Road shares how God's magnificent grace made one woman's life extraordinary.
