About this ebook
Tory Sullivan struggles with the demands of motherhood and her desire for a career. An aspiring writer, she wonders whether she'll ever be able to develop her talent while raising two young children. But perhaps the problem isn't a matter of time, but of Tory. Cathy Flaherty is rediscovering the grins and groans of the dating game. The spunky single mother of three teenagers, she's also learning the urgency of instilling sound values in her children as they attend public school. Sylvia Bryan is an empty-nester. Now that her children are gone, she struggles with a gnawing lack of meaning. Her husband, Harry, wants to become a medical missionary. But for Sylvia, the best part of life seems like nothing but a memory. Brenda Dodd faces an uncertain future. Her nine-year-old son is getting sicker, and there seems to be nothing they can do. It is every mother's nightmare -- a child who will die unless he receives a heart transplant. As the women of Cedar Circle band together to save a dying child, they learn that each moment is precious in every season under the heaven. Taking the best and worst of human circumstances -- the tender moments, the laughter, the tragedies, and the triumphs -- Beverly LaHaye and Terri Blackstock weave from them a poignant, warmly human novel. Gently uncovering the inner struggles, stresses, and joys that surface among neighbors living in a quiet cul-de-sac, the authors show us the power of ordinary lives being knit into a strong, many-textured fabric of family and friendships. Seasons Under Heaven depicts the deepest emotions of a woman's heart, and those circumstances, both thrilling and tragic, that test and strengthen Christian faith.

Reviews for Seasons Under Heaven
6 ratings1 review
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I read 333/333 pages out of Season's Under Heaven. Season's Under Heaven is a book about four families living on the same street. They were the best of friends, and they were face with some major challenges with schools, money, no being able to pay the bills, and family. They discover that God loves them and God always has his own time to do things, even when you want hi to hurry up. I think the main character in this book is Tory because through out the book her eyes became open so she discovered what God wanted her to know. She learned that her family is not a burden but a gift from God. There wasn't anything I did not like about the book. It was very inspirational and uplifting. Something that i can relate to in the book is the fact that a few of the characters sometimes lost faith in God. Sometimes that happens to me but I am always trying to have faith in God more and more. I would recommnd this book to people who need to discover God. This book would help show them that God is real, and that he loves us so much.
