But even as they fall more in love, he realizes that being obedient to God’s calling on each of their lives may pull them apart.

Book Excerpt
Mom, a psychologist herself working alongside her physician husband at the helm of their highly successful drug and alcohol treatment centers, was well aware of Dr. Vance’s renown. That alone appeared to give credence to her choice of schools in her parents’ estimation,so to drop the class now—
“Before we go over the syllabus, let’s get this semester started right and open in prayer.”
He bowed his head and she followed suit. Praying herself still felt awkward, but sheloved listening to folks who knew what they were doing. In that regard, he always had, even as alittle boy praying with his hands folded at the table the many times she’d eaten at his house.
After prayer, they went over the class syllabus, then he pulled a stack of papers out of hisbag and handed them to the girl seated at the other end of the first row.
“I’m sure you’re all familiar with the Brackett internship. It’s one of the most prestigious internships offered to psych students here at DHU. An amazing opportunity I know from my own experience.”
He leaned back against the dry erase board, crossed his arms over his middle and one ankle overthe other, so clearly in his element.
