What if you could ask God anything? What would you ask? And how would he answer?
Chelsea Chambers is on her own. After a public split from her NFL superstar husband, Chelsea takes a bold step out of the limelight and behind the counter of the Higher Grounds Café, an old-fashioned coffee shop in dire need of reinvention. But when her courage, expert planning, and out-of-this-world cupcakes fail to pay the bills, this newly single mom finds herself desperate for help. Better yet, a miracle.
Then a curious stranger lands at Chelsea's door, and with him, an even more curious string of events. Soon, customers are flocking to the Higher Grounds Café, and not just for the cupcakes and cappuccino. They've come for the internet connection to the divine. Now the café has become the go-to place for people in search of answers to life's biggest questions.
When a catastrophe strikes and her ex comes calling, Chelsea begins to wonder if the whole universe is conspiring against her quest to make it on her own. After a shocking discovery opens her eyes to the unseen world around her, Chelsea finds the courage to ask, and heaven answers in a most unexpected way.
My thoughts:
You might want to make sure your coffee pot is working or that a coffee shop near you is open while you read this book. I just love the name of the cafe and wished that there was a place near me that was similar to the Victorian house/coffee cafe as in the story, as I would prefer it much more than the chain store types. Max Lucado has come up with a very interesting story about forgiveness, faith, and reconciliation. This story reminds me of the movie "It's a Wonderful Life" since Manny the guardian angel needs to find a way to help Chelsea and he uses the help of bigger angels. I have always enjoyed Max Lucado's books and this one is no exception! Visit Max online to purchase a copy and purchase a Kindle copy on Amazon.
