About this audiobook
Vanessa Davis Griggs combines Terry McMillan sass and Jan Karon spirituality in the second part of her moving Blessed Trinity trilogy about a congregation striving to gain Heaven while struggling with earthly concerns. Pastor George Landris has a monumental mandate for his flock. He wants them to cast off their strongholds (i.e., their weaknesses), and this sets off a flurry of soul-searching and repentance with humorous and poignant results.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Granted, Ms. Vanessa has been Blessed with a delightful imagination and I genuinely enjoyed her colorful characters; but I am of the old-school credo that believes stories should have a beginning (introduction to the characters), a middle (conflict), and, An End (climatic resolution of the conflict).This story grabbed my interest and left me hanging, only to learn that I needed to read subsequent books to find out how these characters’ faired in their plights. Why not just put the entire story into one novel?If this is a new-aged ploy to sell more books – I say “Bad idea!” I dare say that I’ll be on the lookout for this time-wasting trap in the future. I did LOVE the scripture beginning each chapter...SMILE!!!
