Journey Home in Four Seasons!!!




Roots and Sky: A Journey Home in Four Seasons

by Christie Purifoy


Arriving at her new home in September, all Christie was longing for was a place to settle down in the craziness of this world. This was going to be the place where her family could settle down and grasp the things that was right in front of them, a place they would call home. An old farmhouse sitting on top of hill, called to them with so many possibilities. Looking forward to welcoming her fourth child into her family, she had many plans of making this new home a place of sanctuary for her family. Roots and Sky tells of the first year of life spent at Maplehurst thru the trials and triumphs for the family. It starts with the September they moved thru to the next august. We get a glimpse into a life and struggles of a mother and wife setting roots down and  learning to branch her limbs out to make friends in a very different area than what she was raised in. 



There is so much spiritual and life aspect shown thru this story that it makes you feel like you know Christie as a friend. I love getting to spend some time reading this story and seeing life thru another womans eyes.

This book was given to me for free by Revell for a honest review.
