Leap of Faith

When Abby Bryant’s husband Josh tells her he wants to move to West Virginia to homestead, she’s incredulous… as well as worried. Josh has had some pretty out-there ideas before, but this one takes the cake! They have a perfectly nice life in suburban New Jersey, even if it’s as busy and frenetic as everyone else’s. And while Josh is his typically eager self, ready to start hammering nails, planting corn, and whatever else he’s meant to do according to those YouTube videos he’s been watching, Abby is a lot more cautious. Binge-watching Alone doesn’t mean you’re ready to go off-grid, and they like their life in the suburbs… don’t they?

But then their kids get involved… sixteen-year-old Bethany, fourteen-year-old William, eleven-year-old Jack, and six-year-old Rose are all more on board than Abby could have ever expected, even if little Rose really just wants a cat. Abby starts to suspect she’s the only one dragging her feet… but for how long? When their suburban life starts to come off the rails in all sorts of ways, Abby realizes something has to change. But is homesteading really the answer, especially when they’re such untested newbies? Josh certainly seems to think so. With the help of her family, can Abby take that leap of faith?
