Ester Ried's life is a dull monotony of toiling at her family's boardinghouse. She's overworked, jealous and cranky, a poor example of a Christian to her family and associates. She awakens to a new attitude and commitment due to an extended visit with her cousin. (Summary written by Tricia G)

Wonderful Story of True Salvation & a Faithful Testimony
Kathy Z
(5 Sterne)
A beautiful story of a young woman with godly parents who inaccurately considered herself a Christian as a matter of course. When she visited her cousin, she discovered what true salvation could do in a life surrendered to Jesus. This story also deals with the theme of one's influence on others in this life. Also reading what one sows. Well worth the listen! A story every young person (& even older ones) should listen to or find the book & read it yourself. This would be a great book to read aloud to your family, especially if you have preteens or teenagers.

These stories by Pansy offer tools, offer applications of living IN grace, and WITH grace, in such a way that we can better see how we might “press toward the mark”. Many thanks to LibriVox for your collective gift of the past….. to the present and the future. And many thanks to the devotion-inspired and incredibly dedicated narrator from Canada. Your voice changes over the years, yet your spirit burns steady and clear. May my words of thanks represent the many who will grow from your gifts, but who have not the words, the voice, or the time to respond here.
Great Book, Great Reader!

This has been a wonderful companion as I wake through Nairobi traffic. I have enjoyed it immensely. I highly recommend this book. It has encouraged me to develop a heart for the lost, to pray for the salvation of those around me, and to strive to be salt and light in this sick and dying world. oh the joys of those who know Him!
Refreshing Christian series

Thanks to Tricia G and Librivox for bringing this series to us. Very great Christian series very great reading by TriciaG as always. Story of life as it once was for young woman in america, and their victories and their suffering. A real roller coaster ride with a unexpected ending for me. Enjoy!

Pansy books are just so REAL. They are proof positive that there is nothing new under the sun. as for me, this Ester Ried is like aattending a spiritual retreat: I am a Martha (Ester) by bent, and strive so much to be more like Mary... (2/2019)
moving and edifying.

How this should stir us up and motivate us not to be content with a half hearted Christian life! The results will doubtless be deadly.
Excellent Christian book!!!!!!

Oh that I could be more like Abbey Ried! The sweet, pure, trusting young woman who rests so fully in Christs protecting wing. From her happiest moment to that of deepest agony, she remained steadfast in prayer and the thought that “Our heavenly Father knoweth”. What an example! This book is eye opening, making you question: “How does my own comfortable Christian life measures up to Christ’s?”; “When was the last time I read consistently in my Bible?”; “Do l bring all my little perplexities—and triumphs—to Jesus?”; “Do I apply the question ‘What would Jesus do?’ to everything l do?” This book also encourages. With many helpful thoughts and verses, it is an illustration of the power and joy of true, Christian life. What are your thoughts?
