In Dare to Bloom, Zim offers practical and hard-won truths about: How to reclaim your true identity How to surrender your desired outcomes to God How to move forward after broken friendships How to find comfort during your darkest hours How to navigate new beginnings with hope for whatever is next How to joyfully participate in your own story--even when you don't know what the future holds Dare to Bloom is a powerful gift for readers in times of transition or struggle who need a reminder that their true identity never changes.

This book was originally intended to be used as a daily devotional; however, it is not a typical devotional book. Rather, it is a book of personal stories and Biblical truths learned over 56 years of marriage and ministry. In Genesis 28:10-22, there is a story where the children of Israel piled stones and called them ‘stones of remembrance.’ These were intended as a memorial to the Lord, marking places where God supernaturally intervened in their lives. The stories in this book are Dick and Jeri’s ‘stones of remembrance,’ showing how God led them, provided for them, protected them and intervened in supernatural ways. The stories are shared in the hopes of inspiring and encouraging every reader to believe that God will do the same for them. God is no respecter of persons, for what He has done for one, He will do for others.

The Russian revolution in 1917 and ensuing civil war caused a massive exodus of upper class, intelligentsia, and military families from Russia. The author's parents were part of that exodus, having stayed on until the very end of the Russian Civil War during which the author's father, Major General Paul Petroff, played an important role in the struggle against the Bolsheviks. They lived in northern China, Shanghai, Japan, and, after years of wandering, arrived in California where they became U.S. citizens and part of the American establishment. As you leaf through the memoir, you will find that the family witnessed the War of the Chinese Warlords, the militarization of Japan where the author's father had a law suit against the government for the recovery of gold bullion deposited by him for safekeeping with the Japanese Military Mission in 1920, the air raids over Tokyo, post-war American politics, the Cold War, the difficult years of the Vietnam War debate, and the Iraq War. Carefully documented from family archival materials, the memoir is a richly woven account of an odyssey that spanned eighty-five years of the author's life, from Harbin, China to the San Francisco Bay Area in California.
