Epiphanies _{of a Middle-Aged Princess}

About the Book

Middle age arrives faster than most expect. Epiphanies of a Middle-Aged Princess is a compilation of funny, inspiring essays that will invoke laughter and spiritual enlightenment by reminding women of all ages that answers often arrive from the most unexpected places.

Kathy Oakes, a pastor's wife in the throes of her own hilarious and whimsical pilgrimage through life, leads women down a path of self-discovery by sharing her personal anecdotes and inspirational messages tailored around "divine traffic lights"-the daily revelations she says help women stay the course and ultimately shape destinies. With stories from childhood to child-rearing and grand-parenting, Oakes wraps insight in humor as she shares the secrets she has learned from life's sometimes hard to read map.

Every woman creates her own unique journey. By openly sharing her life experiences, Oakes encourages all women to close their eyes, trust God and recognize the insight and beauty in everyday life. This is where most epiphanies are found.
