Make Something Good Today: A Memoir

By: Ben Napier

Format: 227 pages, Hardcover

From Ben and Erin Napier, the stars of the hit HGTV show Home Town, comes Make Something Good Today…

"Faith was a permanent and unquestioned part of my life. My family-- everyone around me, really-- was cut the same cloth. We were churchgoers and Methodists, and those facts permeated just about every aspect of our lives. It was an intimate part of me, as connected to me as an arm or a leg. It was the air from which I drew breath. Faith is different for everyone, determined by the way each of us is wired. For me, my faith operates as both a floor to ground me and a ceiling to reach for. It champions me and humbles me. It connects me to the larger community, and it makes me feel singular. It tells me I'm one of many, while making me feel as though only I can stand on the spot where I'm standing. It questions me, and it guides me. It reminds me that no matter how good things get, we could lose everything tomorrow. And it assures me that no matter how bad things can be, it's all going to be okay."
