Publisher's Synopsis
Christian, a young orphan, finds himself leading a theologically cold congregation into a Christ-centered life. Following his story, the reader is faced with one mental delight after another as Christian grapples with thought-provoking weighty questions. And there are over 200 relevant Bible references in endnotes at the end of the chapters. The novel is set in 1883 and includes encounters with bears, a bank robber, and a romance.
