KCT: I hope readers will walk away with an abiding sense of God’s faithfulness. RH: What do you hope readers will take away from this book? God is always faithful, but we will we trust that, and will we be faithful to Him? The back of the book asks, will they trust God’s faithfulness…and find the strength to be faithful to Him? That’s really what it’s about–that two-sided dynamic. I wrote this story because I wanted to explore real life trials and real life responses to those trials–the questioning, the doubt, the fear, the weariness–as we try to hang on and trust God. When she attends a college reunion, she’s drawn to another man–because he’s a strong Christian. And Phyllis is a fairly new believer whose husband is hostile to her newfound faith. Her friend, Dana, discovers that her husband is having an affair–and they’re co-leaders of the church’s marriage ministry. KCT: Hey Rachel! Thanks for having me in your little ole corner of the web world! Faithful is about three female friends, each of whom finds herself in the midst of a struggle.Ĭyd is turning 40 and wondering why God hasn’t sent her a husband, why her much younger sister is getting married on her 40 th birthday–in which she’s the maid of honor!–and why her life is suddenly complicated by the playboy best man who’s showing interest in her. Tell us a little bit about the book and why you wrote this story. Hey, Kim, welcome to my little ole web site! Your new book is out, Faithful, from Thomas Nelson.
