One Call Away, A Memoir by Brenda Warner with Jennifer Schuchmann

One Call Away:  A Memoir
Answering Life's Challenges with Unshakeable Faith

For Brenda Warner it never seemed that there were easy options to the many hurdles in her life, but there were options. Two of those options were an unshakable faith in God and His plan for her as well as her family and her reaction in every situation.  Brenda guides the reader through great tragedies, great joy, uncertain times and those times that nearly everyone has experienced in searching for what it truly means to be a person of faith, especially in times of struggle. She also bravely broaches the topic of searching for our own identity in a world that has cookie cutter images prepared for us to fit into. 

   From the moment I picked up the book it seemed I was drawn in to the life of Brenda Warner. The writing style is easy to read and draws the reader into the room of each situation. I grinned, laughed, cried more than once but most of all I was affirmed of the significance of patience and perseverance in faith. Her insights into the world of an NFL wife were enlightening and gave such humanness to a place that is often thought to be perhaps off limits. Her candor and honesty is refreshing and grounding and offers the reader the chance to look inward personally. This was one of those reads that I had troubles putting down, I was entranced by Brenda's faith and the transformation God brought to her, her husband Kurt and their family. I already have a list of friends lined up to share this book with!
