"Get ready to savor one of the most powerful autobiographies I have ever read. It's all here: love, faith, family and the abiding power of hope in the face of disappointment and loss. If you needed a primer to guide you through the travails of life, only to look up and find thesilver linings, this is the only book you need ever read on the subject. Phillip Timp's story begins in the mid 1950's in the green fields of Wisconsin, where he is born into a big family. Athletic, curious, and fun loving, Phillip has a happy childhood. One day, fate takes a terrible turn soon after the Timps move to the mountains of southwest Virginia, where they become part of a new extended family, the good people of the Appalachians. Phil becomes a journalist, falls in love, and marries his true love. You can not imagine what joy and pain lies in wait for them. Phil tells the story of resilience on the path to joy that will fill your heart and shore up your spirit. Whether you are a family member, a friend, a medical professional, or a patient with ALS, youwill find wisdom, truth, beauty and hope on these pages. Phillip is an amazing writer, speaker, and rabble rouser. He brings his unvarnished and honest self fully to these pages, but with a sense of humor and just enough grace notes to assure you that he is listening to a higher power and gaining strength in the process. Project Main Street, the ALS support foundation, found Phil and, in celebration of a great life and in the hope of inspiring others, served as publisher of his story. You will return to these pages time and time again. It's that good; it's that resplendent. Phil's story celebrates tenacity in the face of challenges and delivers the ultimate message that life is to be lived fully in every moment, with every day spent in gratitude and love. Life is a gift and Phil unwraps it for all to see. I can not recommend this story highly enough."Adriana TrigianiBestselling author of The Shoemaker's Wife

As the saying goes, “It’s not the number of breaths we take, it is the number of moments that take our breath away.” Every now and then, and more often than we realize, God breaks into the routine and gives us one of those awesome moments, so powerful, so amazing, so beautiful that time seems to stand still. How long has it been since you had one of those moments? I have had many moments like that. Some were quite dramatic, some were quite memorable, and some were just too beautiful for words. Do you remember the first time you saw the ocean, or a majestic mountain range, or a breathtaking sunset with colors so amazing that you find yourself thinking, Only God could do that! As we explore in this book some of the many different kinds of moments that take your breath away, it is my hope and prayer that we will all become more aware of and receptive to the myriad breathtaking moments that God has in store for us. —James W. Moore, adapted from the introduction Contains twelve chapters plus an introduction. Each chapter of the book features a key passage of Scripture and focuses on a key theme. A study guide is included.

The National Book Award–winning story collection from the author of The Orphan Master’s Son offers something rare in fiction: a new way of looking at the world. “MASTERFUL.”—The Washington Post “ENTRANCING.”—O: The Oprah Magazine “PERCEPTIVE AND BRAVE.”—The New York Times Throughout these six stories, Pulitzer Prize winner Adam Johnson delves deep into love and loss, natural disasters, the influence of technology, and how the political shapes the personal, giving voice to the perspectives we don’t often hear. In “Nirvana,” a programmer whose wife has a rare disease finds solace in a digital simulacrum of the president of the United States. In “Hurricanes Anonymous,” a young man searches for the mother of his son in a Louisiana devastated by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. “George Orwell Was a Friend of Mine” follows a former warden of a Stasi prison in East Germany who vehemently denies his past, even as pieces of it are delivered in packages to his door. And in the unforgettable title story, Johnson returns to his signature subject, North Korea, depicting two defectors from Pyongyang who are trying to adapt to their new lives in Seoul, while one cannot forget the woman he left behind. WINNER OF THE STORY PRIZE • A NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK NAMED ONE OF THE TEN BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY The Miami Herald • San Francisco Chronicle • USA Today AND ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY The Washington Post • NPR • Marie Claire • St. Louis Post-Dispatch • BuzzFeed • The Daily Beast • Los Angeles Magazine • The Independent • BookPage • Kirkus Reviews “Remarkable . . . Adam Johnson is one of America’s greatest living writers.”—The Huffington Post “Haunting, harrowing . . . Johnson’s writing is as rich in compassion as it is in invention, and that rare combination makes Fortune Smiles worth treasuring.”—USA Today “Fortune Smiles [blends] exotic scenarios, morally compromised characters, high-wire action, rigorously limber prose, dense thickets of emotion, and, most critically, our current techno-moment.”—The Boston Globe “Johnson’s boundary-pushing stories make for exhilarating reading.”—San Francisco Chronicle
