Even though this was a short story it was still as powerful story that Karen Kingsbury erites. She really has a great talent to get to hour heart

I love how Karen Kingsbury writes. She's very good a putting God in every way of life. God is all around us.

The story is good (hopefully she will finish the series soon).

However I will knock it down a star. What you buy with this is a promo for Liberty University. Ms. Kingsbury does teach there as an adjunct professor and all five of her sons either attend or graduated from there. But some people will have a problem spending money to buy a promo (especially since I can go to YouTube and find promos for free).

Want the whole book!!!! This is just a preview!! Sounds good but there has to be more to the story!! Love the story.

I was thoroughly enjoying this book and boom it was finished!! I am very disappointed that I am unable to find any information about part 2.
It looks as if part 1 was written in 2015, so is there to be NO part 2?? If that's the case I'm extremely disappointed and would encourage people to NOT begin reading the way to short, short story with NO part 2.

Karen reminds all of us, young AND old, that just because you THINK you have your life mapped out, God's plans may be completely different!!! Listen to that still, small voice - it's God trying to tell you His plans for you!! Don't be afraid to follow His lead! "For I know the plans I have for you...."

I love Liberty University! Several of our young people have attended there. This was a great story that told how special LU is. Years ago they had a program called "Raising Young Timothy's. I was honored to contribute to this amazing program. That was over 30 years ago. What a blessing to see how much the university has grown. Thank you Karen for shedding light on this great school.

5.0 out of 5 stars bringing me back to Karen Kingsbury
Reviewed in Canada on December 2, 2023
I used to read Karen Kingsbury books as a teen…this was short enough to remind me the good feelings I felt when reading her stories and how
They always bring you back to Jesus. I will be picking up her novels again and propelling my relationship with Jesus on a deeper level once again.
