Facing The Past
Not A Word by Chautona Havig is a gritty contemporary Christian novel which I really enjoyed. It is a very powerful read that is rooted in God.
This novel breaks down the barriers of preconceived ideas of completely nice Christian girl meets bad boy with a reputation. We are not who others say we are. We are who God says we are. We are unique with our own personality that may be very different from who others perceive us to be.
Gossip destroys lives. Unfortunately Christians are not immune to gossiping. We should shoot it down. “People don’t forget anything in this town.” People often seem to delight in thinking the worst and refreshing others memories about people’s past misdemeanours’, whether allegations and gossip was founded or not.
