Book excerpt: "Read it for twists on twists, meditations on faith, and a deeply thoughtful treatment of an evangelical community." — Glamour, Beach Reads That Are Like Summer in a Book “A thoughtful and candid meditation on faith, family, and forgiveness . . . fabulous.” —Claire Lombardo, New York Times bestselling author of The Most Fun We Ever Had Recommended by Good Housekeeping, Elle, Parade, Real Simple, Glamour,Refinery29,Bustle, Oprah Daily, The Millions, Shondaland, Yahoo!, Literary Hub, and more! A mesmerizing debut novel set in northern Texas about two sisters who discover an unsettling secret about their father, the head pastor of an evangelical megachurch, that upends their lives and community—a story of family, identity, and the delicate line between faith and deception. Luke Nolan has led the Hope congregation for more than a decade, while his wife and daughters have patiently upheld what it means to live righteously. Made famous by a viral sermon on purity co-written with his eldest daughter, Abigail, Luke is the prototype of a modern preacher: tall, handsome, a spellbinding speaker. But his younger daughter Caroline has begun to notice the cracks in their comfortable life. She is certain that her perfect, pristine sister is about to marry the wrong man—and Caroline has slid into sin with a boy she’s known her entire life, wondering why God would care so much about her virginity anyway. When it comes to light, five weeks before Abigail’s wedding, that Luke has been lying to his family, the entire Nolan clan falls into a tailspin. Caroline seizes the opportunity to be alone with her sister. The two girls flee to the ranch they inherited from their maternal grandmother, far removed from the embarrassing drama of their parents and the prying eyes of the community. But with the date of Abigail’s wedding fast approaching, the sisters will have to make a hard decision about which familial bonds are worth protecting. An intimate coming-of-age story and a modern woman’s read, God Spare the Girls lays bare the rabid love of sisterhood and asks what we owe our communities, our families, and ourselves. “A deeply felt book about love — love for family and community, for people who sustain you and people who disappoint you. And love for God, too, which Kelsey McKinney writes about with humane and incisive frankness.”—Linda Holmes, New York Times bestselling author of Evvie Drake Starts Over “The accomplishment of this canny novel is in positing coming of age itself as a loss of faith—not only in the church, but in our parents, our family, and the world as we thought we understood it.” — Rumaan Alam, New York Times bestselling author of Leave the World Behind and Rich and Pretty

Download or read book Kelsey s Adventure written by Ellen Irene Dawson and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kelsey Lawton, a preacher's daughter, had listened to her grandfather, John K. Lawton, and his friends talk about the Lost Lake legend since she was a very young girl. The men often sat around the Lawton's kitchen table discussing the legend, which they had heard about from their parents, who in turn, had heard about it from their parents. As it was told, a group of people from below the Canadian border traveled in covered wagons from Minnesota into Northern Ontario where they settled on the banks of an uncharted lake somewhere north of Mill Bay, the Ontario community where Kelsey made her home. Intrigued by what she had heard, Kelsey often wondered if she would ever be able to see this mystery lake for herself. Believing the Lost Lake really existed and wasn't just a legend, Kelsey secretly collected clues that she hoped would eventually lead her to this lake, which, as her grandfather told it, was "a fur piece north" of Mill Bay. A nature photographer who used her skills to paint a picture of God's wonderful creation, Kelsey worked at Crag's Camera's alongside handsome Brett Conroy. Brett, who is studying to be a forest ranger, had been watching Kelsey for most of the three years they had been working together, wondering what it was that made her seem to be so happy all the time. When Brett, who had just recently begun attending the local Baptist church where Kelsey's father is the pastor, finally gets the courage to invite Kelsey to the annual church picnic, both of their lives are changed forever.
