Summary: A MUST READ
Comment: MR. GULLY HAS WRITTEN ON OF THE BEST BOOK I THINK I HAVE EVER READ. I ABSOULTELY LOVED THIS BOOK AND I AM NOW PASSING IT ON TO OTHERS SO THAT THEY CAN ENJOY IT AS MUCH AS I DID. IT MADE ME LAUGH OUT LOUD AND I JUST FELL IN LOVE WITH HIS CHARACTERS. IT WAS A EASY BOOK TO READ AND IT MADE YOU WISH THAT YOU COULD LIVE IN HARMONY WITH THE REST OF THEM. I HOPE THAT HE WRITES A SEQUAL TO THIS BECAUSE I WOULD LOVE TO GO BACK TO HARMONY AND VISIT THE LITTLE TOWN AGAIN. BEING A CATHOLIC I LOVED THE IDEA BEHIND THE QUAKERS AND WHAT GOD MEANS TO THEM AND WHAT HE DOES FOR THEM. ( I LOVED THE REFERENCE ABOUT THE POPE ). I HOPE MORE PEOPLE CAN ENJOY THIS AND GET AS MUCH OUT OF IT AS I DID. THANK YOU MR. GULLEY FOR ALLOWING US TO GO TO HARMONY.

Summary: Home to Harmony -- Pure Delight!
Comment: I discovered Home to Harmony on the library shelf. I thought it would be a nice, quiet, peaceful book. Little did I know that I would be almost rolling on the floor with laughter! This book is pure delight! My husband, who hates being read to most of the time, just had to know what was so funny. We spent a rainy Saturday afternoon of reading aloud and laughing. The people in this book are just like a lot of people we know! Then, Mr. Gulley would get serious -- but not too serious. He shares his moral and Christian insights with humor and grace. This book is never too "preachy." If anyone is thinking of reading this book, do yourself a favor and get it as fast as you can. It is the most delightful book I have read in quite some time. I can't wait to read Phillip Gulley's other three books as well.

Summary: A Wonderful Place to Visit!
Comment: Harmony, a small town pastored by Quaker minister, Sam Gardner, is a wonderful place to visit! One can only hope this is the beginning of a series by author Philip Gulley about this little town and its endearing minister. I picked this book up because (1) I have been feeling homesick for a visit to Jan Karon's little town, Mitford, and hoped Harmony might ease that homesickness; and (2) because the back cover compared Mr. Gulley's writing as "part Mark Twain and part Garrison Keillor." Well, on points (1) and (2), I was not let down. Mr. Gulley has a humorous and gentle writing style that is easy on the spirit as he draws you into the hearts and foibles of Minister Sam Gardner's parishioners. At the end of each chapter, he has a subtle and thought-provoking way of challenging his reader to reflect on (1) God's grace in our lives; (2) recognizing the blessings in our lives that we so often take for granted; and (3) dropping the pretenses that so often separate us from both God and one another. This sounds like heavy stuff -- and yet Mr. Gulley has such a light touch that he doesn't bludgeon us with the lessons he seeks to teach -- but gently leads us into the realization that God is gracious and ever-present. Especially in the everyday ordinariness of our lives. Well done, Mr. Gulley!
