A seven day inquiry into the multiple levels by which the will of God is revealed in our lives.
Welcome to a week of study and prayer that may change your life!
Understanding the Will of God is one of the great mysteries of the Christian faith. This difficulty is apparent by the word "unknowable," which is used throughout Scripture in connection with "the Almighty." How can we possibly grasp that which is by nature unknowable?
Yet at the same time, God commands us to "search" diligently to find wisdom, and to know him. What we have before us, then, is the attempt to know and understand something that we never will fully be capable of knowing.
With their beloved plantation, Greenwood, now a vital link in the Underground Railroad, Richmond and Carolyn Davidson must balance the need for safety with their commitment to helping the many runaways who appear at their door. Compounding their danger, the Davidson’s neighbors, the Beaumonts, do not approve of their decision—and view them with suspicion.
The danger intensifies when the Davidsons’ older son, Seth, becomes engaged to Veronica, the Beaumonts’ beautiful, scheming daughter—against her parents’ wishes. As the two families are swept up in events leading up to the Civil War, they must choose sides—in a conflict that will change their lives forever.

The Shepherd of the Hills is the classic story of the stranger who takes the Old Trail deep into the Ozark mountains, many miles from civilization. His appearance signals intellect and culture, yet his countenance is marked by grief and disappointment. He is a man with a mission, yet one which no one understands. What is his purpose in taking on the lowly work of tending local sheep? And how is it that he befriends these simple hill folk, despite his coming from the world beyond the ridges?
