Struggling to escape life’s seemingly bottomless pit, Don, Win, and Marandia all strived to overcome their personal battles. Don is faced by the lack of financial stability of his family, Win and her siblings struggle because, at an early age, they were abused, and they had experienced the doings of her mother and stepfather. Marandia, on a lighter note, struggles in putting up her garden. She asked help from her friends, and they started putting up a potato farm. And this opened a new opportunity for change. All three aspire to become successful in their lives by living through the principles of what it is to be a born again-Christian. A story about family struggles, putting up with the drama of daily life, and the strengthening of Christian faith, The Rose of Sharon will inspire you to live a meaningful Christian life.
