Pack Faith First, Suitcases Second: A Decade of Miracles After 50
What happens when you stop playing it safe and trust God with everything you have?
Pack Faith First, Suitcases Second is a true, faith-filled memoir about starting over after 50 - not as an escape, but as a calling. It's one of those books about escaping reality only in the sense that it pulls you out of fear, routine, and someday thinking, and replaces it with courage, obedience, and hope.
This real-life story by a woman who chose faith over certainty follows one family's decision to leave everything familiar behind and begin again on a tiny Caribbean island - sight unseen, with no safety net and no guarantees.
If you're searching for what to read in nonfiction when life feels stuck...
If you're quietly finding God and starting over in your own way...
If you're drawn to inspirational books rooted in Christianity, but grounded in real life - this story will resonate.
- A decade of modern-day miracles that unfolded only after the leap
- The reality of starting over later in life - fear, doubt, and faith in motion
- What it looks like to trust God when the plan isn't clear
- Unexpected lessons from island life, loss, laughter, and perseverance
- Why obedience often comes before understanding
This is one of those good books for inspiration that doesn't preach or promise perfection. It simply shows what can happen when you say yes - imperfectly, honestly, and afraid - and move forward anyway.
If you're looking for inspiring nonfiction, Christian inspiration, or a reminder that it's never too late for new beginnings, this book offers reassurance, courage, and hope - one true story at a time.
