Sometimes the balance of the message vs. the story is difficult to maintain, but I prefer to err on the side of the story.<br /><br />Thanks for the comment! Sorry for the late response!R.M.

I haven't read a LOT of Christian fiction, but in Christian movies there's always that sit-down with the pastor/loved one/friend/whoever or the magical Sunday sermon that fixes everythng, and I personally hate that. It's never worked like that for me, it's always been a slow progression of trying to figure things out with God. For me it's not a voice from the heavens but a slow nudge over the years. So anyways, I'm glad this one wasn't preachy :-)Victoria Jacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15036742461356732142noreply@blogger.com
