Manage episode 358237803 series 2887941
Lori Ann is the author of the book Divine Detour: The path you'd never choose can lead to the faith you've always wanted.
The book Divine Detour is created based on Lori Ann’s personal experience and insights into how she survives the tragedy in her life that causes her to make a detour.
In this episode, Lori Ann shared her experience of having a serious heart condition, how she fought this adversity, and how it led her to write her book Divine Detour.
Lori Ann talks about how she had a normal life, being a teacher, a wife, and a mother, all according to plan.
But life struck as she was diagnosed with a serious heart disease, which put her life hanging by a thread.
For a long time, Lori does everything she can to heal, but it seems that her disease won’t let go. But Lori won’t just sit and do nothing, as she is an active high, functioning heart failure patient. She found out that writing doesn’t take that much energy. And so this is where it began for Lori to write her book Divine Detour.
Lori Ann tells how her book started because her friend left a notebook for her while in the hospital. She uses this notebook to write questions, not to doctors, but questions about life. Because her husband encourages her to keep writing, this notebook eventually becomes the book.
Furthermore, Lori talks about the question everybody asks when you detour in life, which is also the question Jesus faced. The following questions are the question of worry, the question of doubt, and the question of control.
Lori Ann Wood’s story is spiritual and a life-changing example of one who had been thrown into a detour in life and experienced a drastic change but still fought to find the purpose in life.
