The Red SirenBy MaryLu TyndallDescription:
Faith Westcott abandoned her shallow faith when a series of tragedies struck her family. To save herself and her sisters from forced marriages, this fiery, born-to-the-manor redhead is a lady by day and a pirate by night. How long can she maintain this dual identity before she’s caught red-handed? Book Takeaway:If we belong to God, everything that happens to us, happens for a reason, whether good or bad. Our job is to trust in the love of our Father in Heaven and believe that He knows what's best for us and will work all things out for our good in the end if we follow Him with all our heart. Why the author wrote this book:The Charles Towne Belles series, of which this is the first book, follows the parable of the seed and the sower in Matthew 13. Each book and each sister represent one of the seeds. In The Red Siren, Faith is the seed that fell on the rocky soil and when trials and problems arose, she slipped away from God. I've known so many people who have given up their faith just because bad things happened to them, so I wanted to write a story about a woman who did just that and show the repercussions of turning away from God and trying to do things on your own. |
