By Way of the Wilderness


Leído por TriciaG

(4.9 stars; 21 reviews)

Wayne Pierson can’t remember a time when his life was easy. Enemies in the form of a stepmother and stepbrother have come between Wayne and his father, and now he is without a home. His one ally is his Aunt Crete, but even she can't be told everything. Wayne can never forgive the people who made his life a misery. But with his heart so full of bitterness, can there ever be room in his heart for Christ - or for real, pure love?

Some people, it seems, must go through life "by way of the wilderness" - through the really difficult paths, until they learn their own inadequacy and the pride is subdued, so that they can finally embrace the God they so need. - Summary by TriciaG

NOTE: The emotional abuse portrayed in the first few chapters of this story may be disturbing to regular listeners of Pansy. (9 hr 47 min)

Interesting Characters


(5 stars)

Pride, stubbornness, incomplete communication and a somewhat confused sense of honor all combine to damage 3 families. It's a refreshing change from Pansy's frequent emphasis on the Temperance movement. (BTW, I really think the trigger warning in the synopsis was overdone. There was no physical abuse, and no deliberate emotional abuse from any of the adults in the story. )

lovely
