The Ebersols are raising their four daughters on a firm foundation of Plain traditions and carry that heritage into the future, safe and secure in their cloistered community. But Sadie, the oldest, has found little appeal in her Amish life compared to the lure of the world outside. When Sadie's traditional rumschpringe before embracing baptism goes terribly awry, sister Leah's life may also be forever altered by a secret pact.

What legacy can one person leave on a town? How can one seemingly insignificant event change so many lives for the better? That's what happens to the residents of Destiny Junction. Through one event, they somehow find themselves more connected than ever and begin to search for something they didn't even know they were missing. This is a great read and very encouraging story of how one life can positively affect so many.

This was a great book to give a new perspective on the wisest man who ever lived, King Solomon. The novel follows his life from boyhood through old age and presents snippets of his writings and the circumstances that may have brought those writings forth. As Solomon becomes king, loses his parents, enters into treaties with neighboring countries and gains wisdom, wealth, and women, he struggles to maintain his love for Jehovah.

Troy Phelan is a self-made billionaire, one of the richest men in the United States. He is also eccentric, reclusive, confined to a wheelchair, and looking for a way to die. His heirs, to no one's surprise-especially Troy's-are circling like vultures. Nate O'Riley is a high-octane Washington litigator who's lived too hard, too fast, for too long. His second marriage is in shambles, he is emerging from his fourth stay in rehab armed with little more than his fragile sobriety, good intentions, and resilient sense of humor. Returning to the real world is always difficult, but this times it's going to be murder. Rachel Lane is a young woman who chose to give her life to God, who walked away from the modern world with all its strivings and trappings and encumbrances, and went to live and work with a primitive tribe of Indians in the deepest jungles of Brazil. In a story that mixes legal suspense with a remarkable adventure, their lives are forever altered by the startling secret of The Testament.


Thursdays with Moses: A Really Old Man, a Baby Boomer, and God's Great Lessons
Review Date: 11/18/2009


This is a fun fantastical story of a modern day person going back in time and learning from one of the greatest Bible characters who lived, Moses. It presents an interesting take on the possibility of what life was like for Moses and the contrast of modern day life.
