Truth Wyman has watched Nicodemus, Kansas, grow into a busy little prairie town. And she has grown up, too. Her family was among the first settlers to homestead this area, and there is nowhere she'd rather live. She's always thought her husband felt the same way. . . . Then Moses comes home with news that he has been nominated for state office. If he wins, they'll need to move to the state capital. Pregnant with her first child, Truth does not plan to move to Topeka. How can she raise her baby in an unfamiliar city? How can she leave her family and her home? Yet what will happen if she refuses? Nicodemus's sister community, Hill City, is thriving, too. Macia Boyle returns to her family after a European holiday. The storekeeper's nephew, Garrett Johnson, captures her attention, but she can't seem to forget Jeb Malone, the young blacksmith who showed interest in her before her trip. Soon, Macia must make a choice: Should she return to Jeb's arms or seek a new life with Garrett?

Finding herself alone, upon the untimely death of her grandmother, young Elayna became increasingly troubled about her future, but more than that. She needed to know where her grandmother was and that she was okay. She wanted so much to know who she was without her grandmother and what there was to hope for after this life. Was that, which existed beyond the veil, friend or enemy? She yearned for understanding, direction, and comfort. If she was to find the answers she sought, she could not detour off course due to imprudent effort. Deficient in the foundation of the workings of God and His purposes, she was determined to obtain answers. She needed answers: Was there a god and if so how would she know? Elayna set out on a quest of discovery. With the mutual help of a friend, she came to believe in the gift of angels and the love of God. Her journey begins—to conquer discouragement, dispel all doubts, and continue in purpose…to believe…to know. The purpose of life can sometimes be challenging to comprehend when it presents so many varying philosophies, theories, ideas, and perceptions which can leave a person confused and unsure of how to interpret the who, what, where, how, and why of it all; let alone to conclude why the understanding of god, Christ, and their angelic servants are so crucial in our lives. How have they become integral to our happiness in and outside this sphere we call Earth, our temporary home? Elayna and her prospective husband, Craig, embark on a quest of discovery. They dig through a collection of questions and deep contemplation, hoping that in the end, when analyzed, they will have answered the question - 'Who am I and what does it matter?’ Accept that you are God’s child Accept that there is a loving God Accept that you have an important purpose Accept that you are NOT alone Accept that, notwithstanding trials, there is hope-things do work out Accept all have differences- in their own way, time, and by their own gifts, all contribute to the world they live in. By contributing, you are also contributing to God’s purposes Accept that there is good Accept that with sincere effort and intentions – the path you need to be on will be revealed Accept Christ as Redeemer, rescuer, and friend Accept that this life does not end here. There is a beautiful new world, life, and existence beyond our own
