Waiting for Today is a life-affirming novel about human suffering that inspires hope about what it means to be human. Waiting for Today charts the life of Jacob, a young man who loses what he loves most. Plunged into the depths of suffering, Jacob must come to terms with his faith, or lack thereof, and the nature of the human condition. Jacob is already a wounded man when he meets Faith. Wary of the terms of life's happiness, he relents to the soaring spirit that she brings to him and allows himself to finally accept the wonder and joy life has to offer. But when his dreams of bliss are shattered, Jacob must somehow find the courage to live and love again despite the inherent disillusionment of an impermanent world. Waiting for Today evokes universal questions about mankind's existence and offers inspiration about the beauty of each soul's journey. Set largely in modern-day Washington, D.C., it is a tale of faith and promise that reveals insight into the meaning behind human suffering.
