Sep14

Warming Your Heart And Soul

I Take You by Marion Ueckermann is the most delightful contemporary Christian novel that will leave you feeling good and smiling. It is part of the Save The Date Anthology.

The leading lady has always dreamed of a fairy tale wedding until she learns of a terrible secret and then her priority changes. Weddings are less about spending vast sums of money on one day and much more about the years that follow. Sometimes it is the simplest things that are the most magical.

There is the theme of forgiveness. Sometimes in life our hurt and pain runs deep. We cannot forgive in our own strength but need to lean on God and His strength in order to forgive. If we withhold forgiveness we risk becoming bitter and then dwelling in the land of regret. We must forgive because we have been forgiven.

Stuck In A Rut

More Than This by Marion Ueckermann is the most charming contemporary Christian novel that will warm your heart. It is part of A Rustic Falls Romance series and is in the box set of Love’s Treasure.

Marion Ueckermann always writes wonderful works grounded in God with realistic, likable characters who face relevant problems. It is refreshing to see the two lead characters are in their fifties.

In the novel we see the importance of having God at the centre of all our relationships. We witness a marriage that is drifting. “How could they work on fixing a marriage they’d never realized was more than a little broken?” In our busyness and our routines sometimes we take our loved ones for granted as we witness two lives passing by like ships in the night. Marriages take time and work. We need to invest into them.

God knows just what we need . As He sees our busyness destroying us, He may remove us. “Had they somehow lost touch with each other somewhere between the busyness of city church life and raising two daughters and a son?” Sometimes we can be so busy working for God and for others that we neglect those closest to us.

The big city was squeezing the life out of a couple. The reader meets them in their new small town life. The town is warm, welcoming and caring. There is a spirit of generosity – both of goods and of time and most importantly of prayer.

Rebirth And Restoration

Ride With Me by Marion Ueckermann is a delightful contemporary Christian romance. It is the tenth book in the Chapel Cove series but can be read as a stand-alone.

Once more Marion Ueckermann has created a marvellous cast of characters who will warm your heart. The leading lady is in her late thirties and the leading man is in his forties. It is great to read a romance where the characters are not in the first flush of youth.

Our pasts shape us – our fears have their roots in the past. We need to face our fears and take control so that we can move forwards.

There is the theme of fathers. We may have a fractured relationship with our earthly father but our Heavenly Father will never let us down.
