Selling My Soul by Sherri Lewis
Have you ever been on a missions trip? If so, how long did you stay, and which country did you visit?
Trina Michaels returns home from a two-year missions trip to Africa. She finds a string of calamities in her path: her mother is extremely sick, her irresponsible younger sister has not been paying the bills, and Trina finds herself forced to return to the work force, much earlier than she’d anticipated.
Her job puts her in a sticky situation – a situation which could ruin her relationship with her best friend. She’s also left a boyfriend back in Africa – is their love strong enough to withstand all sorts of obstacles?
This novel also showed how the African people to whom Trina ministered were so close to God. The healings and miracles that happened in the African village reminded me of the miracles mentioned in the New Testament. I touched upon the subject of the Biblical miracles when I blogged about the Early Christians.
This book was so good! A treat to read! Unlike most Christian fiction, the author touched upon some tough, serious, realistic issues which are riddled within the church today. If you want a page-turning book that deals with serious issues, then you should purchase this title.
So, have you ever been on a missions trip? If so, then please share the details of your trip with a comment.
