The Wisdom of Pelicans: A Search for Healing at the Water's Edge
Donald McCullough, a respected Presbyterian pastor and president of San Francisco Theological Seminary, watched his world tumble down around him when a private confession of an affair became public. Writing with courage and absolute candor, McCullough describes the pain of hitting bottom, and how watching the pelicans at the ocean shore helped him to recover the hope - and the faith - he thought he had lost forever.

McCullough writes of disappointment, failure, and the road back to a useful life. Using his own life and his study of pelicans, he brings us in close so that we might hear his heartbeat. He writes for all who know failure and loss and, as in his own life, points us back to the way of life and light.
