Living Passages for the Whole Family

Shea’s latest book is a treasure for any family, any time. Throughout its more than 300 pages, she offers up celebrations for more than 20 of life’s most important moments, many of which I have never witnessed anyone celebrating before. Her love of life and love for the human heart shine joyously on every page – Living Passages is itself a celebration of the steps we all must take along the pathway that is our life.

I believe that this book is destined to breathe healing life into the world long after all of us have moved on to other realms – it is just that powerful, just that love-filled. It is my fondest hope that it finds its way into hearts and homes everywhere, and becomes a source of renewed joy, hope and love to all who are touched by its goodness.
