Where Do I Go

A story of seeking-and finding-God’s will in unlikely places.

Gabrielle Fairbanks has nearly lost touch with the carefree, spirited young woman she was when she married her husband twenty years ago. But when the couple moves to Chicago to accommodate Philip’s promotion, Gabby finds the chance to make herself useful. It’s there she meets the women of Manna House; they need a Service Director-and she has a degree in social work. She’s in her element, feeling God’s call on her life at last, even though Philip doesn’t like the changes he sees in her. But things get rough when Philip gives Gabby an ultimatum: quit her job at the shelter or risk divorce and losing custody of their sons. Gabby must take refuge, as in the song they sing at Sunday night worship: “Where do I go when there’s no one else to turn to? . . . I go to the Rock I know that’s able, I go to the Rock.”
