As For Me And My House

FridayOne Friday Afternoon by T K Chapin is a contemporary Christian romance and the second book in the Diamond Lake series. It can be read as a stand-alone.

The main theme of the novel is our need to trust God and to have faith. We need to make God a priority in our lives. We do not serve a God only to be taken out on Sundays and then packed away for six days. We serve a God who wants to be a part of our whole lives. Trusting God is not like trusting man. God will never let you down.

The novel shows the danger that money and feeling comfortable can have on our relationship with God. “After Nathan began making more money in life, my prayers slowed and my reliance on God dwindles too.” No-one ever wakes up and decides to move away from God. “It’s a slow fade.” As our lives become more comfortable, our reliance on God may diminishes as we prefer to lean on ourselves and our money and possessions.

Hope And Fear

ThursdayOne Thursday Morning by T. K. Chapin is a contemporary Christian novel and the start of a new series. It’s clearly going to be a great series if book one is anything to go by.

Learning To Trust Again

A change of heartA Change Of Heart by T K Chapin is a contemporary Christian romance. Once again he has written a wonderful story full of godly truth and advice.

There are many themes in the novel but one of the main ones is that of a feud that actually happened several hundred years ago. It is so long ago that no-one really knows why the Atkins and the Townsons refuse to speak to each other and dislike each other intensely. T K Chapin shows that this is not God’s way. God wants us to extend the hand of friendship. If this is not possible in our strength, then we must ask Him to help.

Linked in to the feud is the theme of prejudice. We sometimes are quick to judge others based on what we think we know about their relatives. This is wrong. We are never meant to judge anyone. We are meant to love them.
