3In Sunflowers and Storms, the reader will be encouraged, inspired, and challenged in their relationship with God. The book is filled with the joys, struggles, and questions of ordinary people who are seeking to understand God, others, and themselves. Through the use of stories from his own journey of faith, inspiring quotes from others who have traveled their own roads of discovery, and Scripture, Sam hopes that his readers see with fresh eyes the grace and love of God that is present in both the good and trying moments of life. The book affords an opportunity, for those who dare, to grow spiritually and catch a glimpse of that which lies within the veil.
