Review

"This may well be Nancy Moser's best novel yet. A wonderfully entertaining story that will have book discussion groups all over the country buzzing." Deborah Raney, author of the Chicory Inn Novels "A Steadfast Surrender is a challenge to every reader to listen a little more closely to that still, small voice of God; to boldly take the path few others have chosen; to seek God's will in every situation. Nancy Moser's witty style will keep the reader enveloped in the lives of the citizens of Steadfast, Kansas, through the final revelation of God's plan for them." Hannah Alexander, author of Second Opinion "Nancy Moser writes compelling fiction that teaches. As I read A Steadfast Surrender, I couldn't help but reevaluate my own obedience to the one I call Lord. You won't want this story to end." Lois Richer, author of accidental Dad "A Steadfast Surrender-an out-of-the-ordinary reading experience that's probing and daring. Try it!" Lyn Cote, author of the Quaker Brides Series "If you felt that God was asking you to sell everything you own and follow Him blindly, would you do it? A Steadfast Surrender is a wonderfully compelling tale of someone who does just that. Yet Nancy digs deep beyond the single act of obedience and gets to the heart of our desire and struggle to hear God's voice. This gripping drama will challenge your own spiritual journey-what I love best in a novel." Clay Jacobson, author of The Ultimate Reality Show "Once again, Nancy Moser manages to weave drama, a bit of suspense, and spiritual challenge into an entertaining whole, complete with a surprise ending." Janelle burnham Schneider, author of The Bartered Bride Collection
