I am only half way through this book it is an excellent read. Although this is fiction, the author portrays a godly wife who looks to the Lord for everything even under trying circumstances. Her example is one to follow whether you are married or single.

"Through the Fire" has some excitement to it. Who is this person who confessed to burning the church down? At least one person doesn't believe he is the one to do it. Kate, Pastor' Paul's wife, does some sleuthing along with some newly-made friends. In the meantime, the congregants and a dog meet in the rundown parsonage of the newly-appointed pastor and his wife who are quickly accepted and welcome. Seems as though someone doesn't want them to rebuild. Items have gone missing including lumber and a bulldozer. Perhaps the fire and the missing items are connected. An easy read, one that doesn't require much concentration. Easy to follow. Easy to like. Favorite line - p. 122 "You won't be able to forgive yourself until you understand in your heart that you are forgiven. That God's grace is a gift, not earned." Kate displays what grace looks like in dealing with Renee who solicits favors from Kate and then gossips about her. When Kate overhears Renee criticizing her while she steps out of the room, she could run, confront Renee, or pray for help. Kate finds herself tossing up quick prayers more and more in these situations. She later searches herself to see if there is any truth in Renee's words. We see grace displayed in other ways by Kate as well. Some of the events came together a little too quickly and nicely than one would normally see in reality, however, I rather enjoyed the book overall.
