Finding Home in the Fourth Dimension

About the Book

This book is about finding home in a world that obscures the spiritual nature of it, the fourth dimension. Becky’s journey is my journey. The character herself is fictional, but her life experiences, thoughts, and feelings are mine. The other characters are from my life, but are given other parts to play in the story. The setting begins in 1986. Becky and her friends make their way through careers, growing beyond challenges of their past that limit them, into spirituality, freedom, and beyond. These characters brought up hidden emotions I didn’t know were still there. As I created the characters, they taught me to look again at my responses to life with courage, love, and gentle humor. I thank Becky and her friends for giving me gifts I could not have found within myself without them. I gave them life, though only on paper, and they returned the favor by imprinting themselves on my heart. In Philippians 3:13, it says, “Forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God . . .” Spirituality is our nature; the fourth dimension is our home.
