Who's in Charge?


(5 estrellas)

One of the most difficult parts of the Christian spiritual journey is the decision to turn control over to God. All of the inner peace, all of the power to change your attitudes and actions depend on surrendering your will to God's love and grace. This book is a very clear illustration of Ruth Erskine's struggle for control. One of Pansy's best.

harder to follow, but a necessary bridge...


(5 estrellas)

One must remember that these characters are fictional and over 100 years old- even though you want to pouch up the phone and call Ruth and say, "what are you thinking???????" I had to do some re-listening because all the "she's" and "her's" get confusing. my heart aches for the Ruth's out there. We willingly put ourselves in these positions then wonder why we are miserable..... sigh..... on to the next book. (June 2021)

Legalism?


(4 estrellas)

Pansy seemed quite legalistic in this story...father very weak...like most of her stories. Mothers too. I wonder why. There was also Sarah in this story that tormented so many people and yet she never was called on it like the author did with so many of her charactrers... Maybe I've read too many of her books too close together!!??

Ruth Erskine’s Crosses


(3 estrellas)

I like the Chautauqua series even though preachy at some points and miss uses scripture. The author also has a weak Jesus that has to wait for a person to “let him in “ . Certain things are inconsistent and the same person has different names sometimes. But the stories are clean and moral


(5 estrellas)

I have listened to this series a few times and always come away with the question, Why didn't Dr. Dennis or Ruth's father warn her about marrying a non-Christian man?

Second Chances


(5 estrellas)

A great reminder of God's grace when we get off track.
