Shepherds Abiding by Jan Karon - recommended by Suellen

The latest story from the Mitford Series¬ This is a Christmas story about a retired priest who lives in a small town called Mitford. He has many interesting interactions with town characters. Many of these people will seem familiar to you---much like the ones you meet on the streets of our small towns in Clinton Co. I know you will enjoy this inspiration story as much as I did.

The Last Sin Eater by Francine Rivers - recommended by Suellen

This story set in the Smokey Mountains at the turn of the 20th century is a fine parable relating to the story of redemption in Jesus Christ. The symbolism was meaningful to me.

The Negotiator by Dee Henderson recommended by Deanne


The Negotiator is the first book in the O'Malley series.  The series is about seven "siblings" that met and adopted each other in an orphanage.  As adults, the O'Malleys are a close family despite their time-consuming and sometimes dangerous jobs (hostage negotiator, US Marshal, paramedic, firefighter...). Each book in the series focuses on a different O'Malley as they search for love and God. These books offer a combination of adventure, romance, and inspiration.

 

The Postcard by Beverly Lewis recommended by Rebekah

In The Postcard, Rachel Yoder is a happy, yet timid Amish wife and mother. But, when tragedy strikes Rachel’s life she is left with a self-inflicted disability and a sorrow that is nearly unbearable. Until a journalist from New York, staying in her
mothers B&B, discovers a very old, seemingly insignificant postcard. This book is filled with intrigue, serving as a window into the reclusive Amish society. Exposing such things as “pow-wow doctoring,” the practice of healing using
what the author refers to as “white witchcraft.” Prepare to cry, but you’ll love every minute of it, and be dying to read the sequel
The Crossroads as soon as possible.
