Book Description
Kate Remington is living a seemingly normal life in Maryland with her husband, Jake, and two grown children. But what no one knows is that four years earlier, Kate was beaten, kidnapped, and left for dead by two thugs. While suffering from amnesia, Kate found work—and love—on a Wyoming ranch until Jake found her and brought her home. As her memory loss lingers, Kate and Jake are still facing seemingly insurmountable obstacles. She cannot remember loving him—only the Wyoming ranch owner, Brad Crawford. When Jake is run over and killed by a disgruntled employee who snatches his wallet out of his pocket before leaving the body, Kate has no idea he is about to go after her. As she grieves and relies on her faith for strength, the killer lurks in the shadows and waits for the perfect moment to exact his revenge. When he finally finds the right time to confront Kate, she is left with no other choice than to kill in self-defense. Traumatized, Kate returns to the ranch in Wyoming where she learns the power of gossip and her faith as she attempts to find a new path to happily-ever-after. Kate’s Journey is a story of hope and strength through faith as a Christian woman attempts to move forward after two tragedies rock her world and propel her toward a new beginning.

Book Description
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “A meditation on sense-making when there’s no sense to be made, on letting go when we can’t hold on, and on being unafraid even when we’re terrified.”—Lucy Kalanithi “Belongs on the shelf alongside other terrific books about this difficult subject, like Paul Kalanithi’s When Breath Becomes Air and Atul Gawande’s Being Mortal.”—Bill Gates NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY REAL SIMPLE Kate Bowler is a professor at Duke Divinity School with a modest Christian upbringing, but she specializes in the study of the prosperity gospel, a creed that sees fortune as a blessing from God and misfortune as a mark of God’s disapproval. At thirty-five, everything in her life seems to point toward “blessing.” She is thriving in her job, married to her high school sweetheart, and loves life with her newborn son. Then she is diagnosed with stage IV colon cancer. The prospect of her own mortality forces Kate to realize that she has been tacitly subscribing to the prosperity gospel, living with the conviction that she can control the shape of her life with “a surge of determination.” Even as this type of Christianity celebrates the American can-do spirit, it implies that if you “can’t do” and succumb to illness or misfortune, you are a failure. Kate is very sick, and no amount of positive thinking will shrink her tumors. What does it mean to die, she wonders, in a society that insists everything happens for a reason? Kate is stripped of this certainty only to discover that without it, life is hard but beautiful in a way it never has been before. Frank and funny, dark and wise, Kate Bowler pulls the reader deeply into her life in an account she populates affectionately with a colorful, often hilarious retinue of friends, mega-church preachers, relatives, and doctors. Everything Happens for a Reason tells her story, offering up her irreverent, hard-won observations on dying and the ways it has taught her to live. Praise for Everything Happens for a Reason “I fell hard and fast for Kate Bowler. Her writing is naked, elegant, and gripping—she’s like a Christian Joan Didion. I left Kate’s story feeling more present, more grateful, and a hell of a lot less alone. And what else is art for?”—Glennon Doyle, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Love Warrior and president of Together Rising
