Miracle at the Higher Grounds Cafe by Max Lucado


Miracle at the Higher Grounds Cafe is a wonderful new book by Max Lucado.
     Chelsea Chambers inherits her mother's house which includes a coffee house called the Higher Grounds Cafe. In spite of her best efforts, the business is failing and Chelsea is facing the loss of her home. Her life is falling apart.
     A stranger comes to her cafe and offers her an internet connection at no charge for a few months. Chelsea jumps at the chance to upgrade to an internet cafe, hoping more customers will come helping her pay her bills.
     The odd thing about the internet connection is that it only gets one website - a website that allows you to ask God one question and He will answer you.
      If you are wondering how this affects Chelsea's life, please find this book in the new book section.
