Publisher's Synopsis
Life can present us with funny, coincidental, and even strange times. But, what would it be like to reflect on the past -- and your own days gone by -- with a renewed sense of humor and hope rather than doubt or unease? What if you could find inspiration simply by reframing even the smallest of experiences in the context of faith and spirituality?
Days Gone By offers simple yet compelling answers to these questions.
Dr. Marvin Faulkner's collection of inspirational, entertaining, and often comical short stories offers hope (and maybe even some healing laughter!) while charting the pathway to personal growth through faith and spirituality during life's good, comical, and sometimes ugly times. This short memoir serves as a necessary reminder that we are not alone in our day-to-day challenges and that we can find humor, faith, and fresh insight.
Recounting some of his most notable personal memories, Dr. Faulkner engages readers with his entertaining and relatable stories that always end with a universal lesson to be learned and a pearl of wisdom to be gained. From his first time in the boxing ring, to navigating choppy waters on a boat (and in dating!), and a South Pacific paradise gone wrong, plus so much more, it's all fair game in these pages.
Humorous and heartfelt, Days Gone By enables us all to stop and reflect with a new lens of understanding while rediscovering a fresh sense of humor. Whether you are 19 or 90, and no matter what you've been through or what you're going through, this inspirational book can help re-frame the experiences and emotions that we all face in life with renewed positivity and humor.
Days Gone By has already touched the lives of countless readers, and is the perfect gift for yourself, a loved one, or anyone who is searching for a bit of meaning or simply needs a reminder that laughter can be good medicine in the midst of life's challenges--and that faith, hope, and love truly do remain.
