On April 10, 2025, the Friends of the Kerens Library proudly hosted their 13th annual Author’s Luncheon, a highly anticipated event that brought together literature enthusiasts and community members in a celebration of reading and storytelling. This year, the spotlight shined brightly on Chip Waggoner, a well-respected journalist from KDFW Fox 4 News, who was invited as the distinguished guest speaker. Chip was there to share insights from his compelling new book, titled M.I.P. (Miracle in Progress) Discovering the Wonder of God’s Perfect Plan in Our Lives.
During his heartfelt presentation, Chip Waggoner expressed the deeply personal nature of his work, sharing, “My candid reflection on the soul-searching struggle my wife and I faced when we learned our unborn son would come into the world with special and complex challenges. Like many who have received that kind of news, my faith was put to the ultimate test. While this is largely the story of our amazing son, Benjamin, it is also a testimony of how God graciously gave me a front-row seat to witness a miracle unfold.” His touching narrative resonated powerfully with the audience, many of whom were moved by his journey and the message of hope and perseverance embedded in his experiences.
The event took place at KESA, a beloved community venue that created a warm and welcoming atmosphere for all attendees. The Kerens Student Council played an essential role in the luncheon, graciously assisting with food service, which allowed guests to enjoy a delicious meal while engaging in meaningful conversations about the power of literature and the importance of community support.
Adding to the excitement of the day, delightful door prizes—generously donated by local businesses and community members—were awarded at the end of the event, further enriching the experience and spreading joy among the attendees.
