Throughout her life, and always with the solace and illumination of God's Word, Catherine sought to meet head-on difficult questions on obedience, self-surrender, the Holy Spirit, illness, doubt, darkness, releasing God's answers in prayer, accepting God's 'wait' and facing death. Her deep probing and the answers she discovered are incorporated into her writing. This book is a unique collection of writings that even includes personal glimpses from her journals. This is inspirational writing at its best.
I believe Catherine Marshall is one of the best writers of the century as Ifeel she describes God as a friend--is honest about her doubts, spirituality--timeless in descriptions,makes readers want to know about how God works in lives without being preachy or holier than thou. Wonderful reading for those of us who have lost spouses. We need more books on younger widow raising children alone. Christy, first written 30 years ago is so timeless, it thrives today with at least l2 videos, l6 childrens adapted books. Catherine is talented in describing how God works in the lives of people in her books such as the young man with no money whom people helped through college. How her and her mother prayed for money to go to Agnes Scott college. Descriptions of how her mother, though poor cooked delicious meals--how the children played, how real God was to them and worked through their lives. Makes her husband Peter Marshalls sermons come alive and readers wishing they could have known him. All of her books have greatly enhanced my faith. thank you for including her books in your website.
