This is the story of a young couple who enter Somalia during a time of great unrest.

Eastside in 1980 called Eastbrook.

“They were touched by God’s heart for the world. And that theme continued until, in humility, they released their ministry to the next generation with trust. This story is inspiring and important for our current moment.” Pastor Matt and Kelly Erickson, Eastbrook Church

Conversations With Dad
Stories of Faith, Family and Architecture
Rich with memories of William (Bill) Wenzler’s career as the “daring architect of mid-century modern hyperbolic paraboloid churches,” the story is told with tenderness and humor. This book is a love story– the love of a man for his wife and family, his work and church, and the love of a daughter for her parents.
“Wenzler, a designer of beautiful, practical buildings who loved the Lord who makes practical beautiful people out of failing feeble sinners–and loved those people too. You will love this book!”
–Stuart Briscoe, longtime Pastor, Elmbrook Church
“Deb’s writing touched my heart from the first page to the last…her ability to express her heart’s joy and sorrow coupled with her transparency as she walked through grief drew me in. Her ‘private’ conversations with her parents that she so gently shares reveal a depth that only God could have birthed in her. Loved the way she drew such depth out of their experiences…”
Reader Ann Erickson“Love this book! An architect’s exciting life of integrity and passion. A families journey. A daughter’s love for her father and personal walk. Must read!“
Kindle Customer“I just finished reading this book. A great read! It was interesting, funny, informative, at moments sad, and very touching for me personally, as I discovered many parallels in my own family experiences. The text vividly places you in each chapter and scenario, never dwelling too long, always moving forward, coupling the present and the past in moments of humor and times of difficulty. Through beautiful imagery in words and the fleeting passage of time, a wonderful tribute to a gifted and talented father, and a heartfelt account of a family’s love, strength, and devotion.“
