Light from Heaven

Elle C. said Another great book from Jan Karon. Jan Karon is a genius. When I enter her world of Mitford I feel as if I know each of the characters personally and might just take a stroll through Baxter Park or jog with Father Tim up Church Hill. I started reading the Mitford series when I was in college and have read it several times since. I actually keep a paperback copy of At Home in Mitford in my car at all times in case I am ever stuck waiting anywhere.Light from Heaven introduces several new characters that any Mitford fan will love and also has a change of scenery. It is one of my favoritesOkthey are all my favorites!. Nancy said Father Tim may have retired from pastoring his church in Mitford, but The Lord calls him again to start a mountaintop church.. Jan Karon's lovable characters of Mitford continue their lives in Light From Heaven. Pastor Tim faces new challenges in restarting a small church on a mountain top, with not much more than four bare walls, a handful of dedicated people and their faith in God. Not only is the book inspiring, but fun to read. The easy to read regional dialect of the people makes them personable, and believable, making me feel I'm right there in Mitford with them.. DD said Jan Karon's books are filled with blessings for readers.. Recently read "Somewhere Safe" and "Come Rain", enjoyed them so much, I went back to the first book that I had read years ago and re-read them all. "Light from Heaven" was funny, uplifting, thought provoking and filled to the brim with Karon's wonderful, extensive vocabulary and delightful "Southernisms." I love books that leave me feeling I have made lifelong friends: such are the Mitford Books.
