What does it mean to truly live well? Follow Donald and Linda as they journey from childhood to adulthood, discovering answers through family, faith, and meeting moral dilemmas found with increasing frequency in our own times.

Lessons Through Life

From their early years, they uncover powerful lessons:

• • A child's realization: "... you are special and important just being yourself."
  • A teenager's wisdom: "Some people think that you have to earn dignity in some way, with accomplishment, money, or popularity. That's not true. Dignity is a God-given right for everyone."
  • An adult's truth: "The most important dignity we'll call 'being' dignity. It belongs to you the moment you come to be and doesn't end. It's not given and can't be given up or taken away."

Rising Above Challenges

With compassion and insight, Donald, Linda, and their loved ones face life's challenges: loneliness, miscarriage, confusion about one's path, and pressing contemporary issues such as in-vitro fertilization, abortion, transgenderism, and infidelity. By "looking within and standing together," they rise above the tensions and struggles, day by day.

As Josef, the admirable patriarch, reflects: "Living well means living with integrity, honesty, fidelity to your spouses and family, and to the solid and eternal values of faith, hope, and love. It means preserving trust in God, yourselves, and each other, working through problems and honoring relationships in the midst of tensions and difficulties."
