Author C. Lynn Moriarty has written about living with alcoholism in Rainbows of Joy and found her courage at Wakonda Prayer house in Griswold, Iowa where it began her quest for serenity. This book chronicles her journey of paddling upstream with a continuation of her Catholic Faith weaving itself throughout these pages.
In her book Rainbows of Joy from a Diary of Despair, the author learned to find the good in what was wrong in her world. Despair is a result of too much concentration on worldly things. The 'Rainbows' are found by the Children of the River Paddling Upstream with Courage, who are seeking spiritual solutions to worldly problems.
