They look like the perfect family.
But a secret from her past is tearing them apart.

Randy, a pastor who is passionate about encouraging his congregation to strive for greater godly commitment in their lives, always has ideas about the next ministry. Now he’s convinced that their church should kick off a community project to assist the homeless in South Florida.
Laurie—pastor’s wife, mom of two teenagers, and a late-in-life college student—is doing her best to juggle all of her formidable tasks and looking forward to completing her degree in the next year so she can spend more time with her family. But this latest “big idea” of her husband’s is about to push her over the edge . . . especially since she has such an aversion to Stephanie, the homeless woman, and all her homeless friends.
Neither Randy nor Laurie have any idea that Stephanie has been sent not only to touch the hearts of those in his church, but to save his own family from destruction.

Ralph D. Curtin, originally from Long Island, New York, relocated to South Florida in 1987 to direct a large Christian ministry with its focus on Jewish evangelism. Within three years he resumed his ministerial studies, earning a BS and MA in biblical studies from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School in Deerfield, Illinois. From there he went on to earn a DMin in Christian counseling from the South Florida Bible College and Theological Seminary in Deerfield Beach, Florida, where he presided as academic dean and professor of biblical studies. Curtin is presently an adjunct professor for Trinity College in Deerfield, Illinois, as well as a pastor emeritus in a large denominational church in Florida. He and his helpmate of over sixty years, Kathy, have two children, seven grandchildren, and one son who is now with the Lord in glory.
