Description:
From beloved bestselling author Jacquelin Thomas comes a powerful novel
of inspiration, temptation, and redemption, as a determined woman is
torn between pleasing the father who raised her -- and obeying the call
of the Father who created her...
Ever since she was a little girl, Journee Carter wanted to be a
preacher, just like her father. She loved listening to his sermons and
seeing how his fiery words filled the members of the congregation with
joy. She wanted to bring that kind of happiness to people. And when she
grew up, that's exactly what she set out to do. Journee knew there was
opposition to women i the pulpit -- especially single young women. Yet
she never expected her very own father to be one of her biggest
obstacles. But he wouldn't be her only challenge. There were many
others who believed she was doing wrong -- and were willing to go to
great lengths to stop her.
Kingston Lavery is charming, handsome, and a member of New Faith
Baptist Church -- which, to Journee's excitement, has offered her a
permanent position. Kingston is pleased to see Journee there as well.
He is drawn to her -- and not just for spiritual counsel. Although
Kingston is engaged, he decides to pursue the pretty pastor anyway --
with a good deal of encouragement from a most unlikely source. Soon,
Journee finds herself trapped in a web of deception worthy of the devil
himself, putting her reputation and her career at risk. All she ever
prayed for was that God keep her strong, her father's support, and one
day her own family to love. Was it too much to ask? Or is all this mess
simply a test of her faith? She's sure of only one thing: she will not
hear the answer by turning a deaf ear to the call on her heart...
Jacquelin Thomas is the national bestselling author of 11 books,
including Prodigal Husband and A Change Is Gonna Come. She currently
lives in North Carolina with her family.
