This book opens a window into the heart of a loving missionary wife
and mother dealing with the challenges of ministering in a
different land. Refreshingly transparent in expressing her
feelings, Patricia McGregor, with beautiful simplicity, tells it
like it is, the joys as well as the sorrows. On occasion, too, her
husband, Bishop Todd McGregor, as well as her daughters, Corbi and
Charese (ages 15 and 16 at the time) share their thoughts. It is a
moving saga, filled with adventure and surprise. The author has
remarkable ability of seeing spiritual applications in the common
things that happen every day. Life for her is a journey of
obedience in the bonds of Christ. The road has many twists and
turns, but even detours along the way serve to enlarge experiences
of God's faithfulness. To be sure, keeping the priorities of the
Kingdom in order is not easy. There is a cross in it. Yet, however
difficult the task, the love of Jesus shines through, and she makes
you want to follow Him. Reading this book can be a tonic for your
soul. Robert E. Coleman Distinguished Senior Professor of
Evangelism and Discipleship Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary

Patricia (Patsy) McGregor's journey to Africa began in 1991 where
her adventures were documented in her first book, A Guest in God's
World: Memories of Madagascar. The Detour is a collection of her
five-year experience in Kenya and gives spiritual insight into her
discovery of a deep love for the African people. Today, we find her
back in Madagascar serving as the wife of the Bishop of Toliara,
Madagascar, a mother of two grown daughters, an ordained priest,
and immersed within a new ministry dedicated to the villages and
people of Southern Madagascar. Continue to journey with Patsy by
