Leaving might break Angela's heart. Can she put her future in God's hands? Angela Palmer has always known what she's meant to do: study cello performance at the prestigious Gardner Conservatorium, and earn a place in an orchestra. But a string of losses leaves her bearing the financial burden of her grandmother's dream. Pressed on all sides by schoolwork, three jobs, cello lessons, and endless practice, she finds solace in writing her own songs, encouraged by her biggest fan (and secret crush), Emir. With her audition for Gardner Con looming, tension grows as Angela confronts the true cost of pursuing her calling - saying goodbye to her home, her family, her friends... and Emir. Can she place her future in God's hands, and trust His plan for her life? If you enjoy sweet coming-of-age stories about pursuing God's calling, small-town community, and being led by the Lord, The Pressing will strike a chord. This book uses Australian English (similar to UK English).
Autorenporträt
Honey Stone lives on the east coast of Australia a little north of Cedar River, where by the grace of God she's avoided encountering drop-bears, bunyips, hoop snakes, and less mythical wildlife in this crazy country. Much like Rosemary in 'The Shortcut', Honey's patchworked array of jobs makes it difficult to answer the question, "So what do you do?", but provide her with a wealth of material from which to draw when writing heart-warming, uplifting contemporary Christian fiction that points to Jesus. She writes to honour the faithfulness and loving-kindness of the Father, the generous sacrifice of the Son, and the peace, comfort, and wisdom of the Spirit in an ever-shifting world. As the days grows darker, may God's Spirit shine brighter in and through us. Matthew 5:14-16: You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
