French By Heart

An American Family's Adventures in La Belle France

By: Rebecca S. Ramsey

Can a family of five from deep in the heart of Dixie find happiness smack dab in the middle of France? French By Heart is the story of an all-American family pulling up stakes and finding a new home in Clermont-Ferrand, a city four hours south of Paris known more for its smoke-spitting factories and car dealerships than for its location in the Auvergne, the lush heartland of France dotted with crumbling castles and sunflower fields. The Ramseys are not jet-setters; they’re a regular family with big-hearted and rambunctious kids. Quickly their lives go from covered-dish suppers to smoky dinner parties with heated polemics, from being surrounded by Southern hospitality to receiving funny looks if the children play in the yard without shoes. A charming tale with world-class characters, French By Heart reads like letters from your funniest friend. More than just a slice of life in France, it’s a heartwarming account of a family coming of age and learning what “home sweet home” really means.

The Holy Eclair

Signs and Wonders from an Accidental Pilgrimage

By: Rebecca S. Ramsey

When Becky and Todd Ramsey move their young family to France, Becky expects her life to change. But her spiritual life? Why would it? Then a quirky new friend gives her a saint card from the flea market and Becky finds herself on an accidental pilgrimage out of the pew and onto the streets of France, meeting God in a stream of divine nobodies and sacred ordinary things, each earning a chapter and a holy card of its own. As you walk the cobblestones with Becky, catch a glimpse of God whispering into her workhorse heart at each bizarre encounter, revealing the wildness of his love and temptin her to let go of her striving to become his teacher's pet. Watch as she assembles a new faith of her own, one unchained from the church and yet in with it, celebrating God in the imperfection as well as in the perfection, and handing out grace easily, even to herself." -- back cover.
