In Volume 2 of Lead Kindly Light, the inspiring and often humorous true story of the Whitaker family continues. It's 1986, and world-wide oil prices have plummeted, sending Alaska's oil-based economy into a severe depression. The only solution seems to be to return to Idaho, where Dell has been offered the opportunity to take over a law practice in the small town where he grew up. Celestia has been devastated by the loss of their home in Anchorage, but her faith in the Lord's tender mercies leads to the blessing of The Little Blue House. When Dell's ability to support his family is impeded by local politics, Celestia's off the wall solution seems to be the only answer. To complicate matters, both parents find their unusually clever and attractive teenagers can easily outsmart them. The family must depend on help from above to ensure their physical and spiritual welfare, so they can continue raising and launching twelve extraordinary children.
