The Church Girl And The Priest

“Once I started reading The Church Girl And The Priest, I didn’t want to put it down. I was completely drawn into the story. This book was honest in capturing relatable characters, events, family, and church dynamics, and it brought clarity and understanding to a few areas I had questions about. Well done!”

Courage to Overcome

Although created for young people, this book by Teri M. Bethel is ageless. Its content is diverse and acceptable for all ages. It addresses topical subjects that will assist students as they navigate through life. The author's use of short, relatable stories will strike a chord in the lives of many readers. I thoroughly enjoyed this short, impactful book, and I recommend that it should be adopted as part of any school's curriculum. I also encourage parents to read this book and use it as an instructional guide. It is truly a timeless book and a keepsake staple for every household.
