  The following excerpt comes from Spunky Grandmas and Other Amusing Characters by Ken Mogren.  PREFACE   Today’s grandmothers aren’t much like their outdated stereotype. Sure, some might spend their days knitting in a rocking chair or baking pies in the kitchen, but most grandmas have much different lifestyles and far more spunk than traditionally depicted. The grandma stories in the first chapter celebrate this spunkiness.   In the chapters that follow you’ll meet dozens of equally amusing characters.

His sharing is NOT offered as the only possible way to understand it the dictation. It is offered, rather, as a start. The book's sections include deep explorations into "The Call to Interfaith," "The Call to Love One Another," "The Call to Justice," and ...
