This week on Living Inspired hear the true story behing my Amish Big Sky series. Don't miss the encore presentation of my interview with my dear friends Ora Jay and Irene Eash. This three book series (Along Wooded Paths and Beside Still Waters are available now) is loosely based on events from the Eash's lives. Be sure to tune in to Thursday's show - we talk about the stories behind the story, the Amish community in Montana, and their Amish heritage.

I'll be giving away a few copies of Along Wooded Paths, so be sure to leave a comment {HERE} for a chance to win one. Winner will be notified next week via email.

And be sure to catch Suzanne Woods Fisher's podcast interview with me and the Eash's on her show, Amish Wisdom. She interviewed all of us about the book, what it was like working together, and what we learned in the process.


About Along Wooded Paths: Although proud of living apart from the world, Marianna Sommer's newly relocated Amish family is discovering that life in the remote mountains of Montana requires working together with the Englisch.

As Marianna pours her life into helping those around her-and receiving their help-her heart further considers two directions. She's torn between the Amish man from Indiana whom she has long planned on marrying and the friendly Englischer who models a close walk with God like she’s never seen before.

Who should have young Marianna's heart? What is God asking of her through ongoing family struggles and this romantic and spiritual tension? The answer is found along the wooded paths.

About Beside Still Waters: Marianna Sommer believes she knows where her life is headed. Nineteen years old and Amish, her plan is to get baptized into the church, marry Aaron Zook, and live in the only community she's ever known.

When Marianna's family moves from Indiana to Montana she discovers life and faith will never be the same. As she builds an easy friendship with local guy, Ben Stone, Ben not only draws her heart, he also gets her thinking about what loving God and living in community is all about.

As Marianna struggles to find "home", she also encounters God in intimate ways.
