The book presents the best of the first year of Today at the Mission. It is very much like the blog - a record of an emotional and spiritual journey undertaken in the kitchen of an anonymous homeless shelter that could be anywhere, or everywhere. It's not always 'light' reading but it's every bit as real as it is honest. This book captures a few miles of the journey I've been on, and I hope you'll join me along the way.

Donald Miller started me on a journey, mostly because this book made me realize I wasn't crazy. When I first read this book I realized I wasn't the only one that thought this way. You have no idea. If you haven't read this - you must. That's all I can say - you must!
