The Query is a collection of stories - stories of hope - arising from a simple question: What is the reason for the hope that is within you?

They were gathered through chance encounters with strangers across America: On airplanes, in restaurants or cafes, at a car dealership, in a jury waiting room. The stories are as diverse as the storytellers: a teen anticipating senior prom in the arms of her first love; a crusty construction superintendent; an engaging nuclear physicist; a widow scarred by life, with no hope; a Catholic priest on assignment in Rome; a long-haul truck driver; an Army colonel with tours in Bosnia, Iraq, and Afghanistan; a seasoned executive in the twilight of career; a thrice-married divorcee yearning for another chance; an eager young Polish immigrant, now a Fortune 500 engineer; and many more.

Readers eavesdrop on deeply personal conversations as stories unfold. They are struck by a sad truth when Todd, the bankruptcy attorney and attentive husband in the story ‘Everything Changed’, shares: I’ve been reflecting that we don’t really take the time to listen to people anymore.
