Grace Happens 
Adventures in Everyday Living

It’s all grace: fender-benders, being told to stay after school, calling 911, 12-step groups, the Easter goat, forgetting your suit for the wedding–even sticking your finger in the electric outlet. Come along on a newspaper columnist’s adventures, both whimsical and serious, as he attempts to spot glimpses of the grace that surrounds us every day. If we have eyes to see, ears to hear, and a heart that’s at least a little bit open, grace can turn up in the most unexpected ways and places. We can sense God’s presence. And it almost always brings a smile, even if paramedics are involved.
