Tea with Elephants

Robin Jones Gunn

Paperback

Description: "If you want to travel fast, go alone. If you want to travel far, go together."
African proverb

Ever since Fern Espinoza and Lily Graden met as teenagers volunteering at a conference center in Costa Rica twenty years ago, they have shared a close friendship, even though they live in different states. They can hardly believe it when their teen dream of traveling to Africa together becomes a reality. It's the trip of a lifetime--but life sure isn't what they thought it would be back when they were young.

Along with their suitcases, both women bring emotional baggage that weighs heavily on them. The two best friends slowly open up to each other about the challenges waiting for them back home. Soon they discover that the people they meet and the places they experience have the power to change their hearts--but only if they listen to the gentle lessons God is teaching them in this land of emerald tea fields, graceful giraffes, and rambunctious elephants.

Get ready for an unforgettable adventure on a safari of the heart in this vulnerable exploration of how to move forward in faith even when the future is uncertain.


"Only a well-seasoned traveler like Robin could pen such a lovely tale of two kindred spirits exploring a beautiful slice of Africa. My only complaint: now I want to go to Kenya too!"--Melody Carlson, recipient of a Romantic Times Career Achievement Award, author of Just for the Summer and A Royal Christmas
