What a powerful novel! You will laugh, you will cry, you will rejoice! Griggs has done an awesome job putting modern day religion into a novel! Readers will learn about Brianna and the trials and tribulations that she faces in a short period of time. Her faith is put to the test, but she stays steady within the Lord. Griggs uses a scripture at the beginning of each chapter which coincides with what the chapter is about, which made me think about what I was about to read with each chapter. A very interesting concept!My only disappointment in this novel was the fact that Griggs kind of just Alana, Brianna’s best friend, out there. You don’t know where she ends up working, if she ends up settling down, etc. It would have been nice to know that info. Overall, I truly enjoyed this novel and look forward to reading other novels by her. I cannot begin to tell you how much I looked forward to receiving this book, it was several months coming, but well worth the wait. This book is more than Christian Fiction, its lessons presented in a form you will truly enjoy; Vanessa Davis Griggs gives you a better understanding of biblical doctrine.Vanessa Davis Griggs knows her Bible and is able to bring the modern day into well known biblical teachings, giving the verses more understanding for today’s values. She accomplishes this by addressing issues that many churches prefer to avoid. She is not only witty about addressing uncomfortable issues she is realistic. Should you be wrestling with questions of faith, fidelity, forgiveness, and the sovereignty of God, this is a must read for you. This Author is gifted, and I'm very thankful she shares her talent through writing. This is a book that you will not only enjoy but one you will share.Thanks Goodreads! This is a new author for me and an author I plan to follow.
What do You think about Redeeming Waters (2011)?
Probably is a good book, but I couldn't get into the writing style. On to the next book.
