Nancy Shulins had a great career, a loving husband, and was looking forward to having a family. Cheering as her friends got pregnant and dutifully bringing gaily wrapped gifts to every baby shower, she suffered bout after bout of unsuccessful infertility treatment. Devastated, she slowly heals through the most unexpected route: the love of a good (if cranky) horse named Eli. Everyone knows a woman who loves horses. Maybe she rides whenever she can find the time, maybe she rode as a young girl, or maybe she just devoured the Black Stallion books. Twenty years ago, Nancy Shulins let go of one dream--having a child--and worked toward another one: learning to ride and, eventually, having her own horse. In the process, she learned what it means to love another being so much you can’t imagine life without them. Falling for Eli is about learning to break a sweat rather than break down, to try your best even if you’ll never be the best; it’s about learning to stand on your own six feet.

After a passionate but pure courtship, Nancy Fowler anticipated uninhibited sexual bliss in her marriage to Greg Christenson. She couldn't have been more surprised and bewildered when, once the vows were said, 'someone turned off the passion switch.' Made in Heaven, Fleshed Out on Earth opens with the author's misguided stumblings through the wilderness of the Christian singles scene (Chasing Mr. Wrong), continues through the heady and supernatural adventures of Finding Mr. Right, and arrives at Ever After, where the bride and groom make their unhappy discovery: the landscape doesn't look anything like what either of them imagined. Believing, however, that every marriage is Made in Heaven and that God is a very present help as His design is Fleshed Out on Earth, they journey on together, choosing to trust that God will eventually cause them to triumph. Indeed He does, in the eleventh year of their marriage, sovereignly bringing enduring wholeness and freedom into their love life. Nancy Fowler Christenson's story is both an inspiration and a caution to young singles, and a rekindling of faith and hope to husbands and wives still struggling on that journey.

Stories told by parents and their families to protect themselves. A father who defends his wife despite her damage to their daughter’s health and welfare.

Empowered by the stories she told herself as a child, she learns to use stories as part of her work as a university professor teaching theater, drama, world literature, and creative expression. Gradually, with the help of body work and therapy, she finds her voice. Says no to abuse and abusers. Reclaims her self and life. Writes a memoir. She climbs mountains. Weaves tapestries.
