This book is a great book for family reading. The characters quickly come to life and have you caring about their life struggles. From beginning to end, the book captures your imagination. Its simple presentation of faith through life's up and downs is both inspiring and challenging.

Wonderfully refreshing,well written fiction without the typical mushy and shallow romance. The many examples of Godly character in the midst of severe trials was encouraging for my own daily walk. This was a great book for my young teenage children reinforcing positive values of faithfullness, friendship, generosity, perseverance among others. We look forward to a sequel

Thoroughly enjoyed every chapter in this book. I was so interested in the way each individual just became a friend and not with fussy details, but interesting down-to-earth character traits that I could relate to. I felt like these folks were people I knew. I was disappointed when the book ended. I wanted to read more. Definitely needs a sequel to especially get Greta's husband with a new and improved attitude!! I still feel like I should send a Thinking of You card to Greta and perhaps even take a meal over. Excellent reading!

An excellently written book. I couldn't put it down and was disappointed when it had to end. It is difficult to find entertaining/uplifting Christian fiction which is neither "preachy" or "saccharin". As the story of the life of a church and it's administration unfolds, the stories of several families in the church are also told, and we are reminded that we must be mindful of the "tares among the wheat," not only corporately, but also in our individual lives. I hope that we will see more books written by Mrs. Wentworth.

I became totally engrossed in just the first few pages. The characters seemed so true-to-life that I felt I knew them all.

I loved this book and couldn't put it down. I could relate to so many of the characters. I highly recommend this book - you won't regret purchasing it.

I am thankful to be able to read a fiction novel that both entertains and uplifts. The characters are well developed and the story line has an interesting bend. I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys Christian fiction.

This is one of the best books of its type (Christian fiction) that I have read. I highly recommend it.
