20 Short Ones: 20 Tales of Hope

Kirkus Reviews calls 20 Short Ones "An engaging and whimsical book about faith, love, and friendship."


Human relationships can be intriguing, heartbreaking, funny, frustrating, and soulful, among other things. Sometimes, all at the same time.


In a compilation of twenty short stories told from a faith-based perspective, a band of diverse characters shares a glimpse into their lives, relationships, and experiences. Set in Northern Ireland, New York, and many places in-between, each tale offers an opportunity to emotionally relate to the age-old mystery of how friendships, romantic or otherwise, unfold.


When eleven-year-old Agee finds a strange note swirling in the air above him, his path soon crosses with that of a desperate woman who needs him more than he knows. Buber is a production supervisor who is grieving over his next-door neighbor's death when he meets a woman who invites him to her church, drawing out a side of him that had been lying dormant for a long time.
