Former
Lincoln resident Sarah Chase Turner has
written a children's book entitled God is
Bigger. The book features "uplifting poetry"
aimed at helping children in difficult
situations who are fearful. Turner is the
wife of former Lincoln Alderman Nathan
Turner, who died suddenly at a very young
age. "I have definitely learned that God is
bigger than anything you can face. It is
very easy to get overwhelmed by our
problems, but I wanted to remind children
that God is bigger than any of their
problems or fears," said Turner.
