Grace On The Ridge: Thus Far The Road

When the road you asked for costs more than you ever imagined, can you still trust the One who led you to it?Hannah Mercer never wanted adventure; she wanted safe, steady faith. Her husband Daniel wants land—something no man can take away. When they leave their small church in Cedar Grove to follow a wagon train west, they carry more than trunks and flour. They carry quiet fears, unspoken grief, and a fragile trust in God's leading.The trail quickly proves harsher than any sermon: runaway wagons, prairie fire, sickness that prayer doesn't "e;fix,"e; and a river crossing that feels like a baptism of fear. On a lonely ridge by a modest creek, Hannah and Daniel must decide whether to keep going with the train or step off into a life they can't yet see.As seasons turn—dust, snow, drought, and harvest—neighbors arrive, needs knock, and help comes in unexpected ways: wood stacked by unseen hands, seed gifted by a stranger, a first baby's cry echoing in a rough-hewn cabin. Through many dangers, toils, and snares, Hannah and Daniel learn that God's faithfulness is not measured by full barns, but by His presence in the thin places.Grace on the Ridge: Thus Far the Road (A Pioneer Saga – Book One) is a gentle yet honest Christian historical novel about young love, hard land, and a God who walks every mile.
