When It's Your Turn to Serve
Life is full of unexpected obstacles, but thereâs no challenge too big for God to handle.
Washington D.C. is crammed with people eager to bend your ear about statistics, polls, and policies. Karen Pence is more likely to talk about beekeepingâif sheâs not busy teaching an art class, painting watercolors, or riding her bike.
An elementary schoolteacher who never expected to leave Indiana, Karen found during her extraordinary journey to becoming Second Lady thatâdespite the turbulence inherent to political campaigning, and through eighteen moves and countless surprisesâGodâs grace was sufficient.
When Itâs Your Turn to Serve is full of heartwarming and relatable stories of being a leader, a teacher, a mom, and a Christian throughout an unpredictable life. From turning up to âPet Nightâ on Capitol Hill toting a lizard, two cats, and a dogâonly to find it was an event for lobbyistsâto getting the unexpected news that her husband had become Donald Trumpâs nominee for vice president, Karen has learned to take surprises in stride.
In this warm and deeply personal book, the former second lady shares the lessons sheâs learned about God, faith, and family. Brimming with stories that mattered but didnât make the headlines, the book challenges you to be open when opportunities arise, recognize your purpose in Godâs plan, and step up to make a difference when itâs your turn.
This warm, funny, and encouraging memoir shares lessons on navigating lifeâs unexpected turns with grace:
- Navigating Change with Grace: Discover how the Pences handled eighteen moves, raised three children in the spotlight, and made the daily choice to trust Godâs plan.
- Humor in Public Service: From arriving at a lobbyistsâ event with a menagerie of pets to her husbandâs surprise VP nomination, laugh along with the relatable moments that never make the news.
- From Teacher to Second Lady: Follow Karenâs journey from an Indiana art classroom to the Governorâs Residence and eventually to Washington D.C., learning to embrace the mantle God places on your shoulders.
