Review and Giveaway of "Redeeming Love" by Francine Rivers

CONGRATULATIONS TO ANN WINNER OF "REDEEMING LOVE"


Most people have probably heard of Francine Rivers and many have read "Redeeming Love". I am excited to be able to present this book as a giveaway.



Back Cover: California's gold country, 1850. A time when men sold their souls for a bag of gold and women sold their bodies for a place to sleep.
Angel expects nothing from men but betrayal. Sold into prostitution as a child, she survives by keeping her hatred alive. And what she hates most are the men who use her, leaving her empty and dead inside.
The she meets Michael Hosea. A man who seeks his Father's heart in everything, Michael obeys God's call to marry Angel and to love her unconditionally. Slowly, day by day, he defies Angel's every bitter expectation, until despite her resistance, her frozen heart begins to thaw.
But with her unexpected softening come overwhelming feelings of unworthiness and fear. And so Angel runs. Back to the darkness, away from her husband's pursuing love, terrified of the truth she no longer can deny. Her final healing must come from the One who loves her even more than Michael does...the One who will never let her go.

A powerful retelling of the book of Hosea, Redeeming Love is a life-changing story of God's unconditional, redemptive, all-consuming love.

    My friend and fellow author, Tom Blubaugh, tried to leave a comment and couldn't so I'm going to leave it for him.

    "Sorry, I thought I was already following your blog. I am now. Sounds like a very good read. Nice review. Thanks for featuring my book Night of the Cossack. I'm flattered. I'll have to figure out how you did that. I fairly new to Blogger and haven't maxed out the options yet."

    I've read several books by Francine Rivers; this is one of my favorites. I like that she decided she could no longer write secular fiction but had to write fiction that glorified God.

    I believe I'm one of the last Christian romance reading women in America who has yet to read this book. *hanging my head in shame* Thank you for the giveaway and the opportunity, Deborah! I see that we're both part of the ACFW as well as the John 3:16 Network ~ how cool is that?! Love finding friends everywhere!
