NEW INSPIRATIONAL FICTION

IN THE CHURCH MEDIA LIBRARY

Catching Christmas, by Terri Blackstock

Finn, once a chef and now a cab driver, is called to help Miss

Callie, an old lady with dementia by taking her to the doctor and

helping her run errands. Finn, is very frustrated that Miss Callie’s

granddaughter, a very busy lawyer, is not helping her, but he

can’t seem to refuse. As he helps her, he learns more about

“Miss Callie” and her dependency on God. He becomes willing

to help fulfill her Christmas wish, he just doesn’t realize

that he will be part of it.
