ONE-PARAGRAPH SUMMARY
As a boy in Kansas City, Rod Masteller danced a jig for his uncles' quarters and quietly absorbed a belief that would run his whole life: performance plus approval equals worth. He carried that pattern into decades of ministry, until a rooftop conversation in Atlanta stopped him cold and reorganized the rest of his life around one question: are you going to dance, or are you going to rest? Written by his wife and four daughters after his sudden death, Dancing for Quarters tells the story of thirteen daily choices, first in Rod's own words from sermons and journals, then through the eyes of the family who watched him live them, and who are still living them today.
