Lighting The Way (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780692303665)

The author of Sweet Tea and Southern Grace, Glenda Manus, delivers another emotionally charged work of fiction. Lighting The Way is the second novel in the Southern Grace Series, and once again focuses on Rev Rock, the Presbyterian minister in the quaint little town of Park Place, South Carolina and his new bride, Liz. It's the Christmas season and storefront displays, twinkling Christmas trees and busy shoppers liven up Main Street as the town prepares for its most exciting season of the year. Christmas parades, candle lit street lamps, and children's Christmas pageants pump up the holiday spirit, but not everyone in town is celebrating. Homeless and with a broken spirit, a very pregnant seventeen year old named Maria drifts into Park Place looking for a place to hide from an abusive spouse. Homeless, hungry, and trespassing on church property she vows to do whatever it takes to protect herself and her unborn child. Is it by chance, or is it by God's grace that Maria meets a couple touched by sadness but strong in faith? And just when Maria is beginning to feel at ease, her husband's car is spotted in town lurking around the church and parsonage, sending everyone into a tailspin and wondering how the Spirit of Christmas can be salvaged in the quaint little village of Park Place. The other quirky characters that the readers have come to know and love from the first novel find themselves weaving in and out of Lighting the Way. Once again, these people will have you chuckling, and sometimes crying right along beside them as their hearts of gold are openly displayed in this well thought out and charming Southern novel.
