Description
Faith Morgan is struggling with her faith. Years of
neglect leave her doubting that God will ever fix her marriage. When a coworker
accuses her husband, Jonah, of the unthinkable, Faith begins to wonder if she
really knows him at all, and if it’s truly in God’s will for them to stay
married.
Pediatric cardiologist Jonah Morgan is obsessed with one
thing: his work. A childhood incident cemented his desire to heal children at
any cost, even his family, but now he finds himself at a crossroads in his
life. Will he continue to allow the past to haunt him, or find healing and
peace in a God he shut out long ago?
The Story Behind This Book
It’s hard enough to keep a secret without telling a lie, but when you’re married it’s almost impossible. In Secrets and Lies, the Morgan’s marriage is collapsing under the weight of both. Against the backdrop of old memories, new enemies, and a plot for revenge this intense drama unfolds addressing several relationship issues; communication, honesty and trust among them.
The story takes readers into the complex mind of Dr. Jonah Morgan, a man who’s dedicated his life to physically healing children, but he’s emotionally and spiritually sick himself. And can his wife, Faith, keep the “faith” after Jonah’s accused of the unthinkable? Or when a woman’s fed up, is she truly fed up?
Praise and Reviews
OOSA Online Book Club Review: Clogged Arteries
Faith is a mother, wife, daughter and friend. She uses her day to help
uplift, motivate and encourage others. Along the lines, she feels as if
something is missing. Seeking employment outside of the home just may
be the answer to the numbness she's feeling, though Jonah, her husband
of ten years, has made it clear that he makes more than enough money to
support their household and a couple of others. Faith's hands may soon
be filled with all types of impending drama.
Jonah is a father, son, and pediatric cardiologist. While he may be
something spectacular in his field, he's pretty absent in his home.
When the past is drudged up, Jonah finds himself seeking the bottle
rather than allowing God's will to flourish. With secrets, unresolved
issues and regret looming, Jonah finds himself caught up in a huge mess
and alone.
While the Morgans have been married for ten years, there is still a
lot that they both need to learn about themselves as well as the other.
When their faith is tested, bond is broken and their love compromised,
it's up to the two of them to submit and allow God to renew them. Are
they ready to deal with this battle?
Newcomer, Rhonda McKnight, has penned a wonderful, encouraging and
uplifting story about forgiveness, love and understanding. I loved the
characters, the story and love that easily flows from each page.
Definitely a book worthy of a recommendation!
