Times And Seasons
Posted by: Blc914 <Blc914@...>
read it last weekend and I have been under the weather this week and off the
computer, so I probably didn't write about it.
Needless to say it is a GREAT book! This is the 3rd in the Seasons series
that Terri Blackstock and Beverly LaHaye are reading. Please, if you haven;t
read these do so -- in order! Now what are the other titles......
Seasons Under Heaven
Showers in Seasons
Times and Seasons
So good! I am expecting a fourth book and my guess is it will be the final
one. This series centers around the lives of 4 neighboring families and while
there does seem to be 1 family in focus per book, there is a lot going on
with the others. In fact, situations over flow from book to book.
Times and Seasons looks closely at Cathy -- a single mom with 3 kids -- one
who is giving her lots of trouble. Cathy is about to get married and just as
her wedding shower is starting she gets a visit from the police to tell her
that her 15 year old son has been arrested for selling drugs. This is not a
fairy tale book that sugar coats reality. There are some hard lessons
learned, but there is such a picture of God's Grace and Mercy. Also, this
isn't an every thing turns out just perfect book -- it is more real to life
than that and for that I am thankful. There are lots of other things
happening here.... but to mention them would give a lot away to those who
have read previous books. So ladies - you will have to read this one
yourselves.
I love all of Terri's books and these with LaHaye are my favorites! (of
Blackstock books that is! -- please NEVER ask me to tell my absolute favorite
book -- after the Bible I have no idea what I would choose!)
Enjoy your reading!
