Clara: From Trials to Triumph (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781973603689)

God has plans for all of our lives, and for one young girl growing up in Kalamazoo County, Michigan, in the early twentieth century, a bucolic country life with family would reveal to her the many ways that God was there to guide her toward her future.

In Clara--From Trials to Triumph, author Lois Hettinger reflects on the details of her mother's early years and legacy as she shares her mother's memory and story of being guided to adulthood by God. This touching narrative retelling is based on the true stories of Hettinger's mother's life growing up in Michigan, and this idyllic backdrop is the scene for the unfolding of a family's pioneer heritage and enduring faith.

Clara is a tribute to a woman and a mother who grew up with the support and guidance of family and God, and it invites us all to reflect on a nostalgic time where faith and values could help us face our challenges and obstacles with hope.
