Christians are human, too

By Beverly "bevreader" - February 18, 2001

A Moment of Weakness is yet another triumph from Kingsbury. She portrays Jade and Tanner as earnest, yet flawed, Christians whose one night of passion leads them down rocky roads that change the course of their lives. Growing up on the "wrong side of the tracks," Jade had a loose mother and drunken father and no spiritual upbringing whatsoever. After her mother leaves them, Jade spends the rest of her sad childhood taking care of her alcolholic father and trying desperately to rise above her circumstances. In the meantime, her childhood playmate, Tanner Eastman, with a wealthy and cultured background, lives his life mostly as his parents expect him to, with one exception. He becomes a born-again Christian, something his overbearing and domineering mother cannot understand. When Jade and Tanner meet again as young adults, they realize how much they love each other and want to be together. Tanner leads Jade to Christ, and they make a commitment to each other and to God... read more

Sleepless on Vacation

By B. Billerbeck "krisbeck" - May 23, 2000

I loved this book and its characters. I took it on vacation with me, and could not sleep because I was so entranced. So much for relaxing! I thought the book was realistic, addressing major life issues, without being preachy. I think it's a great read for a young girl who has yet to make a choice for abstinence.

An Incredible Tale of Sin, Grace, and Forgiveness

By Daniel Darling "Christian pastor, author and ... - April 26, 2004

This is the second Karen Kingsbury novel I have read, the first being One Tuesday Morning. For the second time, I have come away with a respect for the quality of writing that Karen Kingsbury produces. Her characters are not storybook, because their lives are flawed as are all of us and yet she accurately chronicles the work of God upon the hearts of his children and their response to the Holy Spirit's prodding.A Moment of Weakness is not for the faint of heart--I wouldn't recommend it for children because of the complicated plot lines. However, for those who did pick up this book, it will give you a fresh perspective of God's incredible grace and love in bringing his children back from the slough of thier own sins and into a loving embrace. You will not be able to put this book down as you find yourself heavily steeped into the lives of the characters of this great tale. Buy this book--its definitely a one or two-nighter.
