Redeeming Love

Product Information

I have never read or heard of Francine Rivers before, in fact read this book after reading Masterpiece and saw the comparison review to 'Redeeming Love'. She is prepared to go on stage to entertain the men, but once there, the voice of God tells her to sing and she starts singing " Rock of Ages" to the awed and confused crowd. Now this was a man who was told by God, that he should marry Angel and deliver her from her bondage. Despite what people might say, this is 100% a Christian book and should be read only by those that enjoy religious fiction.

If the idea of a kind of self-sacrifice to the extreme that doesn’t seem to benefit anyone apart from God (but even then that’s debatable) appeals to you, then you’ll probably like this book. Wearing someone out to the point that it's easier to say Yes than No is not really the same as making them love you. Thankfully there is not much detail, but the impact of events is part of the trauma in the story that needs to be redeemed from.Mae was urged to abort the child, but refused to do so, and her decision separated the two and left Mae depressed.

Over the years she has become bitter and cold; it's her only defense against her growing despair at sleeping with men she doesn't like in a prison gilded by the gold dust of the Californian mining town she's settled in. It's based on the bible story of Hosea and Gomer, but you don't have to be up on your bible studies to enjoy this one. However, Duke's sexual preference is for young girls, so he asks Angel to manage his prospective "companions," but only after a week's worth of prostitution. Seriously, if god used his god-to-brain telephone to let me know that someone crazy, Courtney Love let's say, was the one, then I'd really have no choice but to pursue that person because nobody else would make me equally happy.And sure, even though Angel couldn't have children, she ended up having them because I guess God reversed whatever that "doctor" did to her to make sure she never got pregnant again. thus, instead of giving the facts, it presented images and drew out emotions where bare facts would have been much less sensual. New York Times bestselling author Francine Rivers is one of the leading authors of women's Christian fiction. Michael is a true saint and if you took away his devout belief in God he’d make one of the best romance heroes around.

She picked a few daisies that grew in the garden patch by the door and then headed for the rose trellis. For those who will no doubt comment that the book of Hosea also contains graphic scenes of a similar nature. the devil tries to make us think that we are not good enough for Good, that we should run away from him (like angel felt with Michael) but God wants all of us, with a our hurt, past and mistake!We didn't have to spend two chapters on her being sold at the age of eight and raped by a monster, over and over again, over the next number of years. Seriously, this really is like an Atari game in that you could easily divide the characters into two camps: good guys and bad guys.
