Like Gold Refined (Prairie Legacy Series #4)

by Janette Oke, Marguerite Gavin (Narrated by)

Overview

Virginia loves her life, living on the farm with her beloved Jonathan and their children, not far from her parents and her grandparents. But what troubles her is the gradual physical decline in Grandma Marty and Grandpa Clark. She cannot imagine life without their welcoming smiles and words of wisdom that arise from their life experiences and solid faith in God.

And their lovely daughter Mindy, who has blessed their home ever since her mother left the tiny child with them, has been encouraged to pray for that mother all these years. Is God answering that prayer, or is the worst nightmare any family could face now upon them?

Virginia is not sure she has the strength or fortitude to truly become like gold refined.

Editorial Reviews

In Quiet Strength, Oke began the story of Virginia and Jonathan's married life. Picking up a few years later, Oke finds that the couple having been blessed with three healthy children and a foster daughter, Mindy, the child of Virginia's friend Jenny. As Virginia and Jonathan move through their daily lives, secure in their love for each other and in God's love for them, the family faces some difficult decisions. Jenny returns, gravely ill, and demands custody of Mindy. And, if that weren't enough, Marty and Clark Davis, Virginia's grandparents, are unable to live alone on the farm, and no one wants the responsibility of forcing them to move into town. Although Oke offers no real sense of difficulty for the couple, she wraps up this series in truly happily-ever-after form with a pleasant book fans will adore.
