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.
