hind's feet on high places by hannah hurnard

    This is a book I have loved and read as of late. I cannot recommend this highly enough. It will encourage you in your walk with the Lord, and strengthen your trust in Him!

     So, what makes this book different? It's sort of a female version of Pilgrim's Progress, and, if you get this version of the book, it comes with a devotional! Here is the summary from Amazon...

  "Hinds' Feet on High Places is one of the most successful works of Christian fiction. It is the story of a young woman named Much Afraid and her journey away from her Fearing family into the High Places of the Shepherd. It is an allegory of the Christian life from salvation through maturity. It doesn't actually describe life in Heaven, but shows how the Christian is transformed from unbeliever to immature believer to mature believer, who walks daily with his/her Lord as easily on the High Places of Joy in the spirit as in the daily life of the mundane and often-times humiliating trials that tempt us to lose perspective of who we now are in Christ."
Rating? ****
Should you read it? Definitely!

  1. It sounds like an excellent book. Pilgrim's progress is definitely one of the best and most loved novels to read.
    Thanks for sharing.

    1. Yes, I have to agree. I just read Pilgrim's Progress this last year and loved it! Very encouraging to remain faithful to God and strong in your faith.
