Book Reviews
Philip Gulley is a beautiful writer. His ‘Just Shy of Harmony’ is just shy of perfect.
--Charles Osgood Anchor, CBS Sunday Morning
Filled with humor and grace, this is a delightful homespun tale.
--Lynne Hinton, author of Friendship Cake
The master storyteller has done it again with his colorful, homespun characters from the small-town community of Harmony, Ind. ... Readers will want to keep this one at their bedside.
--Christian Retailing
...A real-life microcosm of mankind... No wonder he’s been called Indiana’s Garrison Keillor.
--American Profile Magazine
Like Jan Karon, Gulley has a gift for understanding the hilarity and pathos of churches in small towns. A winner.
--Publishers Weekly

Master storyteller Philip Gulley returns to the winsome ways of Harmony, Indiana, the small Midwestern town that captured the hearts of readers in his acclaimed debut novel, Home to Harmony. Just Shy of Harmony follows the happenings of an eventful year spanning two Easters, in which Quaker pastor Sam Gardner and the members of his flock discover surprising answers to life's challenging mysteries.

Sam has an unexpected crisis of faith -- will he overcome it? Does the future of the church really lie with Pastor Jimmy of the Harmony Worship Center and sermons like "Ten Mutual Funds Jesus Would Die For"? Will Wayne Fleming resolve his conflicted love for the beautiful lawyer Deena Morrison, owner of The Legal Grounds Coffee Shop, where ten dollars buys you a cup of coffee and the answer to any two legal questions?

All the lovable Harmony characters are here, with all their homely charms. Readers will discover a secret illness, learn of a surprise lottery recipient, and laugh at the progress of Dale Hinshaw's ill-hatched Scripture-egg ministry. When Easter dawns, all will expect a miracle in Harmony.
