Synopsis

A lamp is never only a lamp. Sometimes, it is a calling.

From the storm-beaten Oregon Coast to the legacy of Florence Nightingale in Crimea, Book of the Lamp begins an imaginative journey through nursing, faith, family, history, courage, and human flourishing.

Nathanael is shaped by the people and places that taught him how to care: grandparents whose light still guides him, teachers who made learning joyful, nurses who modeled service, coastal communities that formed his character, and a faith that keeps calling him toward compassion.

As memory, history, and myth begin to intertwine, the ordinary world opens into something larger. Shipwrecks become vessels. Guardians return. Ancient nursing stories awaken. Kitchens become places of healing. And the question becomes impossible to ignore:

What would happen if nurses helped lead the world toward flourishing?

Book of the Lamp is the first volume of The Evergreen Chronicles, a story world rooted in the belief that healing reaches far beyond prescriptions and hospitals. It includes food, movement, sleep, relationships, purpose, community, stewardship, faith, and the courage to serve.

At its heart is the emerging vision of Kitchen Monk and a mission of Moving All of Nursing Forward Internationally.

For readers drawn to nursing history, inspirational fiction, spiritual meaning, family legacy, the Pacific Northwest, and stories where the real and the wondrous meet.

The light has been passed from one generation to the next. Now it is time to carry it forward.
