Questioning God's Will

(Living Parables Incorporated Dec. 6, 2018)
Somehow life enticed two expressive soulmates, a struggling farmer and a high-school teacher, to regularly set aside time each week for over a year to carefully script their thoughts on the issues and events unfolding about them. Life had them fall in love as the economy tanked and another world war threatened. This came about in 1937 when Walter met Margaret at a church outing at summer’s end in Greeley, Colorado where she was visiting her sister shortly before returning to her job in Washburn, North Dakota. They married thirteen months later. Aside from two brief visits, their letters contain all of the premarital thoughts that they exchanged. Questioning God is the second book in A Lettered Courtship, a trilogy with an edited version of their correspondence at its core. Because these two expressive soulmates were to become my parents, I was often privy to how their understandings played out in their work and relationships and was always well aware of how they played out in mine. I have come to see the understandings and choices in these letters not as answers, but doors and angles into my own life and relationships and perhaps those of the reader. I have included extended takes on their concerns with our fundamental sources of truth, the changing world order, and the open tomb.
