It is the summer of 2016 and Pastor Maggie finds herself challenged in unimaginable ways. A national election is dividing the country, the city of Cherish, and Loving the Lord Community Church into splintered factions. To complicate matters, she is working with a local business owner to resettle a refugee family from Syria, but not everyone is happy to see the new arrivals. Maggie tries to guide her discordant flock but careens from one crisis to another. She knows that much good happens in a community where love and kindness reign, but how can she possibly overcome the judgment, divisiveness, and hate that permeates her parishioners and the nation? Can she hold her flock together through the storm?
      In this fourth book of the series, the determined young pastor must marshal all the patience and fortitude she can to hold the vision of a harmonious and loving society.

Praise for For Better, For Worse, Book 4 in the Pastor Maggie Series

It was amazing!
"This is one of those meaningful books that makes us examine our perspective on our thought processes and expectations when we are giving to others, particularly when we decide what others need. As with the previous Pastor Maggie books, the characters and their interactions seem so real they could walk off the page and into our living rooms . . . a delight to read with enough suspense, laughter, and depth to keep me engaged and looking forward to more of Pastor Maggie."
~ Charlene Kushler

"The warmth of the characters and their interactions will make the reader smile and ponder many things. I turned the pages quickly wondering and anticipating what would happen next. This is a very fun story as well. It shows what the power of love can do. It is creative and extraordinarily imaginative."
