About this title

Synopsis

In Lessons From a Fig Tree, author Susan Dupr� LaHaye compiles seven decades' worth of collected prayers, poems, words of wisdom, and deep, personal spiritual explorations in a heartfelt expression of a long life well-lived. Telling the story of many a Cajun grandmother--past, present, and future-this memoir shares how LaHaye's Bonne Famille Catholique lives the dream of rural "Cajuns," loving their French heritage through music and food cooked in big pots, with the entire family living within six miles of her home on the Mamou prairie. It chronicles how she is guided by her Catholic faith, which she holds close to her heart and shares with everyone she meets. Through a compilation of essays that document revealing moments along her spiritual journey and her personal and professional life, LaHaye communicates hope, gratitude, and inner reflection that guides one to lasting, lifelong growth.
