53 Weeks 6x9 Mockup copy

What do you do when you discover the one thing you need most . . . but it could tear your life apart?

Noel Garraty is living his best life. After a successful career in finance made him rich and cultivated his taste for the good life, he found himself drawn to a path in the ministry. Now with a beautiful family, comfort, and success in an idyllic Midwestern town, he has everything he ever asked for.

But his picture-perfect life is shaken to the core when he is dragged into a forgotten world that neither he nor his community are eager to embrace. And when his leadership is threatened–and his entrepreneurial instincts kick in—he crafts an outrageous, out-of-the-box vision that might be the only way to save his church and his community . . . if it doesn’t ruin him first.

Fifty-Three Weeks is a compelling and heartfelt spiritual journey that will challenge your faith in all the right places. Noel’s life may not turn out as he’d hoped, but there’s hope for others the world considers hopeless, and even the hardest of hearts may be softened in the process.

About the Author

Dale Stohre is a retired minister, husband, father, and grandfather who lives and writes near Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

He retired as a minister after serving six congregations in Minnesota, Nebraska, Ohio and Wisconsin. The son of a minister, he’s a graduate of Bethel University and Bethel Theological Seminary in St. Paul, Minnesota. He founded and led The Anchorage as a pastor-at-large for the business community in Duluth, Minnesota, his home town. He remains active in the United Church of Christ, and social justice is one of his passions: advocating, marching, getting into “good trouble” (though he hasn’t been arrested yet).

He also loves God, mountains, the Great Lakes, and Beth, with whom he shares his life. When he’s not writing a novel, he can be found hiking or cycling somewhere, or tending to his model railroad empire.
