Where Are You Feinstein? by Carolyn Hayes

Sep21

Are You Ready?

Where Are You Feinstein? by Carolyn Hayes is a Christian tale just perfect for any age. It’s question “Where are you?” forces us to examine exactly where am I in my walk with Jesus? Many Biblical characters were asked this question so we are in good company.

The foundation of our life is crucial. If we build our lives on anything but Jesus, we will be in trouble.

The End Times are coming. Are we ready for them?

Where Are You Feinstein? entertains whilst making us examine our faith. Will we hear “well done good and faithful servant” at the end of our life? Self examination is a good thing to do. We do not want to miss Jesus because we were distracted.

Answering Age Old Questions

When Our Feet Can No Longer Dance by Carolyn Hayes is a Christian allegorical tale that looks at three questions that concern many – about suffering and evil; is Jesus really God?; and who wrote the Bible and can it be trusted? It is perfect for anyone from child to adult. The answers to the questions are all backed up by scripture.

The story is simple yet effective, designed to get us all thinking.

Illustrated by Angelo Rivera, there are some beautiful and strong images. My favourite was of Jesus as a baby and on the cross.

A great addition to any bookshelf and one to revisit again and again, especially in times of doubt.

The Gilded Curse by Marilyn Turk

On The Brink Of Change

The Gilded Curse by Marilyn Turk is a fabulous Christian historical novel that had me enthralled from the start.

Set in 1942 on the home front in America, the reader witnesses the fears and concerns of ordinary citizens. Germany was far away but still the threat of possible invasion seemed very real.

The novel is about loyalty. It has far reaching arms down the years. Kindnesses are not forgotten. There is the loyalty of God’s love. If we wander away, He awaits our return. Sometimes our wander away from Him is slow, so slow that until we are far from Him, we had not realised we were adrift. God longs to welcome us back home.

Home is another theme. Home is not bricks and mortar. Home is where people love us and we belong.
