Walker Percy Loves You and Has a Wonderful Plan for Your Life

Every life is of infinite value. Every story is worth telling, including yours.

After he experienced three traumas, Douglas Brown learned a valuable lesson: the way out is out. The way out of grief is to move forward. Walker Percy Loves You and Has a Wonderful Plan for Your Life is both a memoir and an open-hearted look at the big questions of life, death, and more life. With humor and compassion, Doug writes of how those traumatic events showed him the value of every soul. He explores how the writings of Walker Percy, a very funny New Orleans writer, helped him deal with the madness of our time - and make sense of his own life. And he shows how the sacraments of the ordinary can lead us out of loss and into happiness.

Along the way, you will learn that each of us can see and tell our own stories in ways that honor grief while encouraging joy.
