A Life Well-Lived

The Surprising Power of Meekness for Inheriting the Earth

By: S.R. Buckel

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Did you know that the key to a joy-filled life is not ambition, but abasement? You don’t need to do something big to find peace; you only need to do every little thing as though for God.

Mr. Bartz learned these truths. From a squalid childhood during the depths of the Depression, in a home ruled by a man so violent that he invented torture devices, Francis Bartz made his way in America—not by ambition or will, but by meekness.

Constantly threatening him are tempests of abuse, war, divorce, bullies, a hit against his life, cancers and loss, mediums, hauntings and possessions. The very trials through which true men are forged.

From his deeply mature responses to these familiar--and yet often shocking--struggles, we receive vital lessons. His life and times, taking place within a backdrop of exquisite Americana, comprise this narrative. Yet it is the tender moments of forgiveness, miracles and family events threaded throughout this rich tapestry, which lend it a sense of timeless relevance.

This is part biography, part inspiring devotional, for those seeking Christian counseling or simply a way to release all that plagues their life. You can receive peace, if you can learn to forgive, to heal, to grow in grace!
