Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
The Redemption series won Christian Retailing's 2005 Retailer's Choice Award for Best Series!
When Kari Baxter Jacobs finds out that her husband is involved in an adulterous relationship and wants a divorce, she decides she will love him and remain faithful to her marriage at all costs. This book shows how God can redeem seemingly hopeless relationships, and it illustrates one of Gary Smalley's key messages: Love is a decision.
Redemption is the very first book in the five-book Redemption series that Gary and Karen will write about the Baxter family--their fears and desires, their strengths and weaknesses, their losses and victories. Each book will explore key relationship themes as well as the larger theme of redemption, both in characters' spiritual lives and in their relationships. Each book includes study questions for individual and small-group use as well as a 'teaser' chapter of the subsequent book in the series.

The beginning of the book and the subject of betrayal, could have been very depressing but I really wanted to know what the title had reference to. Whether this man could have been forgiven and the turnaround. I didn't see how so it kept me involved. I loved all the good references to family,their times together and their loyalty to their daughter and sister. Very surprising ending. I think it was very well written.

This is one of the most intriguing books I have read in recent years. I was attracted to this series because I know of Gary Smalley's work and found it interesting that he would combine real-life counseling and fictional characters. Frankly, I think it was a genius idea because we are having more people read and discover helps for their own lives because they are willing to read fiction when they wouldn't read other books. I love the way that the main characters seek God's leadership before making any decisions and follow his will. God's way is the best way is driven home by having those who willfully disobey what they know God's will to be and suffer the consequences. I simply could not wait even one night to get the following book when I was through with one. Therefore, I went and bought all 13 available books in the series so I would never have to wait.

I am very disappointed with the book. I agree with the original critic - it reads more like a self-help book than a literary novel. The adultery, alcohol described in the book seem very unrealistic and organized to create certain points that the author wants to get across to the reader. I would find it hard to believe if this author has any real understanding of the circumstances that they try to describe in the book.

Read this book in 3 days, only because I had to go to work otherwise I would have stayed up all night. It's not one of those you can't put it down, edge of your seat type of novels, however, I did find it stimulated my own sense of right and wrong, forgiveness level and the ability to see God in everything. The way it is written puts you in the place of the characters and how God works in their lives even if you can't always hear Him. And even when you do, do you take what is said and act upon it? I can't wait to read the rest of the series... On to book Two!

Karen Kingsbury is an amazing storyteller. I became hooked reading this series and now read just about everything she publishes.I have not traditionally chosen "Christian Fiction" but, Karen Kingsbury has shown that these authors have great merit!
