About this product

Product Information

What are parents to do when their prolific singer/songwriter son, healthy at age nineteen, writes a song titled Dance at My Funeral -and they find themselves six years later doing just that? Dance at My Funeral, the book, details the tales of Dan Steven, a troubadour who wandered the urban jungles, critiquing his world, challenging hate, giving away his shoes, loving angels, and surrendering his life to God in a most spectacular way. It's also a story to which many families can relate-those who've raised boundary-breaking teenagers, love music, search for peace, have travelled the road of grief and kw life's quixotic melding of sorrow and joy. Dance at My Funeral is a story that needed to be told ... of a remarkable young man whose prophetic gifts include the premonitions of his early death and his grace-filled reaction. Added to that is Dan's extravagant love of this world, his faith and longing for the next, and the irrepressible surges of creative inspiration expressed musically in his many songs with messages for our times. It also provides an insider's look at the grace needed...in living with such an unusual, n-conformist son whose lifestyle issues would drive many parents crazy. How does one live with a contemporary prophet anyway? Are there any books that describe in detail the love displayed in this divorced family, showing a unity many intact families would envy? I do t kw of any. -Richard Westmaas, Clinical Psychologist But there is ather kind of sorrow, too-the kind that comes from working to make a difference in the world, and despairing at the ermity of the task. Sorrow can come from seeing our world-fallen and broken-through God's eyes. I have met two people who have been touched by such saintly sorrow. The first was Catholic scholar and theologian Henri Nouwen...the second...a young man by the name of Dan Steven. -Lloyd Rang, columnist, Christian Courier Author Bio: Jan Klooster is an ordinary fierce mother of four who has faced what every parent fears most-losing a child-and has answered the need to set it down. She is a teacher, journalist, and lover of books, birds, sunflowers and songs. She's also a kayaker, hiker, and first-time grandma who has come out on the other side of a watershed experience, compelled to tell the miracles and spread the grace given. A Canadian, she w lives with her husband and husky in Cadillac, Michigan. This is her first book.
