The God of the universe is still in the business of healing and restoration. Travel to paradise as one financially devastated couple, their twenty-nine-year-old equine, and young goat take a flight-of- faith, leaving the economically challenged mountains of Southern California for the unknown, off- grid "tiny" lifestyle of a vintage, rented yurt on the Big Island of Hawaii. In My Year in a Yurt, Jen McGeehan tells the true story of how she and her husband, Pat, experienced a radical lifestyle change when they packed their bags, left their three-thousand-square- foot home with their realtor and, with over $600,000 in debt, unknowingly entered the Tiny House Movement. With foreclosure and bankruptcy hitching a free ride, Jen sent yet another prayer to heaven asking for God's divine intervention. My Year in a Yurt unearths life-changing treasure through thirty-eight stories that reveal the humorous, bittersweet, and miraculous experiences of the McGeehans as they stepped into a once-in-a-lifetime journey that would soon mirror a national lifestyle movement. Jen McGeehan is a motivational speaker, sharing her humorous yet inspiring stories of God's miraculous healing and restoration. As an accomplished equestrian and nature enthusiast, Jen was able to successfully transition from life in the fast lane of Southern California to the off-grid, back-to-nature farm life of the Hamakua Coast of Hawaii. She is the founder of the Annual Christian Women's Gathering, currently held on the Big Island of Hawaii. "And she is a" voice within the Tiny House Movement, both in Hawaii and beyond!
