Unplanned [Kindle Edition]

J. Heather Leigh (Author)

Book Description

McKenna thought she'd endured the worst humiliation imaginable when she was left at the altar. Then, a single night of bad judgment leads to even more shameful consequences.

Embarrassed, she fears the rejection of her friends and family.

Will her church turn their backs on her in a time when she most needs mercy and compassion?

Editorial Reviews

From the Author

This book was inspired by God and I feel it reflects His heart on a very difficult topic. How do we, as Christians, respond to the mistakes people make? It's so easy to snap to judgment, forgetting that we've all sinned.  

This is a short read and it ends with hope. I believe you will enjoy it and I hope you will pass it along.

5.0 out of 5 stars Instruction in love August 11, 2012

By childogod

Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase

"Unplanned" was a surprisingly refreshing novelette which revealed the inner workings of the mind of a young woman during her journey into accepting God's, her family's, her friends' and her church's love for her after making a mistake. Pregnancy out of marraige for a young Christian woman is so public that the fear and expectations of judgement are commonly assumed to occur in every situation. I liked how she discovered the truth about making plans for her life without God's wisdom and input and then being willing to share that with the young people in her church.
It deals with real life situations and I liked how her pastor and church board showed wisdom in their forgiveness. We can learn alot...

5.0 out of 5 stars Short but sweet August 16, 2012

I really enjoyed this short but sweet read. It was a pleasant way to pass and hour or so before bed. We all make mistakes and I like the route the author took with the main character's mistake.

4.0 out of 5 stars Redemption July 19, 2012

By Grace

Format:Kindle Edition

This beautiful story of redemption is engaging and hope-filled. Perhaps not everyone can relate to the details of this particular crisis in McKenna's life, but most people know what it feels like to feel hopeless shame after being caught in their own failings. This precious little story breathes fresh hope into our very real pain. It reminds us that no matter what, God loves His children, and when we turn to Him - He can make something beautiful, even out of our mistakes.
