One Last Chance....

In her novel, The Chance,  Karen Kingsbury weaves a tale of heart-wrenching loss, the power of faith, and the wounds that only a forever kind of love can heal.  She delves deeply into a theme that resonates within us all: hope lives for those willing to take a chance.

Synopsis: From #1 New York Times bestselling author Karen Kingsbury comes a heartwarming story about childhood friends, broken lives, and a long-ago promise that just might offer the hope of love for today.

The day before a teenage Ellie moved from Georgia to California, she and her best friend Nolan sat beneath an ancient oak tree where they wrote letters to each other and buried them in a rusty, old metal box.  Their plan was to return eleven years later, dig the letters up and read them.  But as the date approaches, much has changed.  Ellie has abandoned the faith she grew up with, her days consumed with loving her little girl and trying to make ends meet.  Sometimes she watches TV to catch a glimpse of her old friend Nolan, now an MBA star, whose faith is known by the entire nation.  Few people know that Nolan's own personal tragedies have fueled both his faith and athletic drive, and despite his success Nolan is isolated and lonely, plagued by a void in his heart that has remained since that night beneath the oak tree with Ellie.  For both Ellie and Nolan, the coming date is more than just a childhood promise; it's the chance to make sense of it all—the chance to find out if it's ever to late to find love again.

Karen Kingsbury puts a Godly perspective on difficult issues that people face each day.  Her books touch on topics of faith, forgiveness, love, hope, loneliness, loss, and redemption. 

For your reading enjoyment, I highly recommend her books.  Just be sure to keep a box of tissues nearby!  

I pray that God will bless and if you're struggling with something help you through it.

God Bless!
