For Pete, the hardest person to forgive is himself.

Reviews for Grace in the Desert

[jeannierhi79 · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

The thing I love most about this book is how well it illustrates that sanctification is an ongoing process. We see the struggle to do what is right when the flesh screams out for the opposite. It's easy to think no one else struggles the way you do, but it's not true, and sometimes God uses an excellent work of fiction to remind you. This series has been absolutely amazing. I devoured all four books in just a few days because I couldn't put them down. Start at the beginning and work your way through them, you will be blessed.
