The Path

Pip's tired of running in circles. Can she trust God to make her path straight?

Twelve years of short contracts, disinterested students, and relentless research pressure has left Dr Philippa Hardy burned out and jaded. A visit to Cedar River to see her old friend Rosemary offers a much-needed escape, but although she delights in Rosemary's newfound joy, she finds herself wondering whether the endless cycles of academic life are the best that God has for her.

In Cedar River, Pip finds unexpected friendships as she connects with Brooke and Lacey, cooks with Leyla, and grows closer to produce farmer Nick Bauer. As the warmth of the town soothes her weary heart, she starts to question whether her hard-earned academic identity is worth the cost.

When one chapter of her life comes to an end, two new doors open before her. Will she cling to the path that's defined her for so long, or step out in faith to become someone new?

If you enjoy heartwarming stories of finding rest, embracing change, and seeing God's goodness, you'll be inspired by The Path.
