Inspirational Fiction
I'm Ferrell Hornsby. I have discovered the uplifting world of inspirational fiction! I based my first book in the LIfting the World series on my husband's journey through MS (with his permission, of course). He's had such an amazing life, and I wanted to share some of it without infringing on the autobiography he's currently writing. The result is a sweet, heart-wrenching, cheering-out-loud story that has made more than one reader cry! I'd love to hear how you enjoy it!

If We’re Breathing, We’re Serving (Lifting the World, Book 1)
Frank Berglund has worked hard every day of his twenty-seven years and has never missed an opportunity to help those around him. Serving his neighbors and community as a way of life, Frank had built for himself a satisfying life on a foundation of kindness and generosity. With a single doctor’s visit, his world changed. Diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, he was handed the life sentence of a hard-working, independent mind soon to be imprisoned in a crippled body, and life-long dependence on others for even the most mundane of tasks. Bitterness and anger sinks Frank deep into depression, without even the chance of a cure for this debilitating disease to shine a light through the hopelessness within him.
His only chance at finding hope once more lies in the hands of his caring doctor, a beautiful and cheeky physician’s assistant, and a physical therapist with a warped sense of humor. But is it possible for anyone to break through the walls Frank has built within himself? Can he learn how to find joy in serving once again?
If We’re Breathing, We’re Serving, the first book in the inspiring “Lift the World” series, paints a picture of those unsung heroes all around us who find ways to lift others no matter their own circumstances. Author Ferrell Hornsby brings us a story of hope, courage, inspiration, and motivation. It’s a tale that will prove that each of us can, indeed, Lift the World, one act of kindness at a time.
