What happens when life shakes your foundation? What if your foundation isn’t the foundation that God really wants you to have? Beside Still Waters is an Amish fiction novel by bestselling author Tricia Goyer that captures the struggle between dreams and the reality of life. Beside Still Waters takes you on the journey of: understanding your purpose appreciating God’s grace Raised among the Amish of Indiana, 18-year-old Marianna Sommer plans to get baptized into the church, marry Aaron Zook, and set up life in the only community she has ever known. But when her older brother chooses the world’s path following his rumschpringe, and a younger sibling begins showing interest in Englisch ways, Marianna’s parents move the family to Montana. Although she is also in her rumschpringe years and not obligated to move, Marianna makes the journey to dutifully help her mother who is expecting another child. Surprisingly, from strangers on the cross-country train ride to the less rigid stance of the new Montana community, many Englisch influences awaken within Marianna—and even her father—the desire to pursue a deeper kind of joy and love for God. After an accidental death, Marianna tells her friend Ben a defining story about the Sommer family, and his response further illumines the active relationship God seeks with His followers. In due time, she learns the move from Indiana was not about losing anything, but finding out who God really is. Despite all the shake-ups, Marianna feels a sweet peace, like still waters, in her soul. Beside Still Waters is for: fans of Amish fiction and/or romance novels readers that enjoy reading stories about personal faith journeys and self-discovery fiction lovers who want to learn more about the impact of God’s love, grace, and desire to deepen their relationship with Him As a part of the Big Sky Novel series, these tales of love among small Amish communities will entice you to rejoice in the wholesome romances of the characters.
