Great book with an amazing message
This book truly touched my heart and illustrated throughout the book that the love of Jesus meets us where we are and is always there and waiting for us even when we don’t think we deserve it. This book has an amazing story and I couldn’t put it down.
THE WEDDING DRESS
I loved how the 100 years were woven in and out of the present/ the past. Excellent story and I lived the ending.... the symbol of Jesus and love.
TH E WEDDING DRESS
THE WEDDING DRESS by Rachel Hauck. She has done a beautiful job of an intriguing story of a dress and the four woman that were connected to it. How interesting to have Charlotte owning a boutique, but unable to find her special one. Going to an estate sale and bidding more, or even bidding and hope Tim, fiancé, would understand. Old battered trunk,a lock that wasn't easy to get opened. Showed the courage and faith these 4 woman had. Emly 1912, Mary 1939 Hilary 1968.
Given ARC. by Thomas Nelson for my voluntary review and my honest opinion.
