EXTRA ORDINARY

By: Sarah D. Shearer

What does it mean to be extraordinary? Are our lives only worth recounting if they contain heroic tales or fairy tale endings?

Even if you haven’t accomplished great feats in life – maybe you’ve been a grocery store clerk for the last ten years, or haven’t ever left your home state; maybe you’re a stay at home mom or any other “average joe” – your extra ORDINARY story contains beauty that we often overlook without sharing with the world.

And this book is exactly that. A tale of an ordinary girl who grew up in Georgia in an ordinary family that loved Jesus, homeschooled their children and spent Saturday mornings getting the car serviced.

But in the ordinary stories of her life – in the mundane moments between school and church – Author Sarah Shearer has found the real wonder and beauty of the world. The power of human connection. The joy of a relationship with Jesus. The delight of family and friends. The triumph of overcoming hardship. In her memoir, Shearer recounts ordinary moments of her life and connects them to the world and faith in God in a much larger way, in hopes of inspiring all of us ordinary folks to see how extraordinary our own lives are.
