An American Carpenter's Story is filled with what one baby boomer learned over sixty-five years here in America. It explores the question and meaning of deep love as discussed in the Bible and the mistakes made by false love and the price and pain it caused everyone. It leads us through the tragedy of a false accusation that sends William to prison for fifteen years. It leads us through story after story and the burning question, "Was that God's intervention?" It introduces us to William's soul mate and a love that could only be described as coming from a living saint. Then it reveals to us the deep love of others that worked tirelessly to save William's life while in prison and the love the church showed to him while there, his medical fight for survival after release, and his ten-year fight with cancer, ending with the calm and joy of living with the deep love he had been looking for and the knowledge of knowing that God was in control all the time.
