Relentless Love

Beschreibung

Living with limits protects a heart from hurt. After unexpectedly losing her husband, it's a lesson Katie Blake has learned well. From moving in with her elderly father to staying at home with her son, Sammy, Katie's life has been arranged to avoid further pain. After three years, life feels stagnant. It's time to carefully venture into the world once again. Sammy needs friends his age, and Katie needs a project to focus on. As Sammy adjusts to preschool, Katie finds her perfect job. Her position even allows her to befriend Anna, a young mother who needs encouragement. Events also bring Nathan Phillips, a childhood friend, back into her life. Each successful step forward encourages Katie to continue opening her heart. By the time her friendship with Nathan begins to deepen, Katie is ready to pursue the relationship. Nathan's encouragement gives Katie strength to make tough decisions regarding her father's care as his dementia progresses. But when Sammy is injured while in Nathan's care, Katie knows she's made a mistake. It won't happen again. Abandoning their relationship in favor of safety is only the beginning. Katie has felt God calling her to help change Anna's situation, but the risk is too great. God will have to find another way to help. It takes a strange message from her father for Katie to understand God's relentless love and desire for her life to reflect His love. But will Katie take the risk or continue limiting love in favor of a life without hurt?

Autor

Born and raised in rural southern Illinois as a preacher's kid, Heather was well acquainted with ministry life before her husband became a pastor fifteen years ago. She started serving in youth and children's ministries when her daughter was still a child. Now, those ministries and wrangling the schedules of her three teenage boys takes a lot of her time and energy, but Heather still tries to carve out a little time for herself. Like many of you, her favorite way to relieve the stress of the day is spending time with a good book. Of course, if she wants the time to be really special, Heather will add a warm blanket and a mug of hot cocoa to her reading time. If she isn't reading to relax, you can either find her baking in the kitchen or binge-watching her favorite television shows. Heather has been active in youth ministry for several years. She has led children's and youth groups for many years. She also directs a Christian youth camp for teenagers every summer. While most of her ministry work has involved children and teenagers, Heather has a heart to see women of faith encouraged and growing in their relationships with God. As believers grow closer to God and begin living out His truths in everyday life, others will see their need for the Savior and long for relationship with Him. It is Heather's prayer that God will use her love of writing to foster this encouragement and growth in the lives of Christian women.
