Promise Me ThisBy Cathy GohlkeDescription:
Annie Allen never imagined the day she watched her brother sail on Titanic would be the last time she’d see him. Nor could she guess how the tragedy would forever knit her life with Michael Dunnagan, who only survived because of Owen’s sacrifice. Book Takeaway:I hope readers see this story as a picture of Christ's love story to the world--His gift by grace that forever changed and made possible all that we are and hope to be. I hope readers not only desire to accept His gift, too, but to love one another with the same sacrificial love Christ demonstrated for us, the love demonstrated by characters in "Promise Me This." Why the author wrote this book:Titanic has long fascinated me--the ship, her builders, the romance of the era, but especially her passengers, crew, and the family members left behind. I saw in the story the potential for a picture of Christ's sacrifice for and gift of life to us, and our response to that unmerited gift. |
