title: The Bittersweet Harvest
author: Cuffe, Sadie; Cuffe, Sophie
description: What do you do when you discover the man you thought you knew, the lover you’ve called husband and best friend for twenty-two years, is suddenly a stranger? Every day Susanna Jacobs withdraws a little more from her one-time soul mate. Is it his frustration over her rocky mentorship of their newest employee that has caused the rift between them? Or is it his angry and arrogant unbelief that’s led him to ridicule Susanna’s new-found faith? Her mission to return a Bible to a woman who wants nothing to do with her and her faith, has Susanna questioning everything she believed was true. When her family relationships and friendships turn toxic, two wives and mothers are left at odds with each other and God. As Susanna struggles to rescue others on her journey of detours and missteps, will she become a casualty? A Woman Like Me/The Bittersweet Harvest continues the faith journey every woman must take through “the valley of the shadow...” If you’ve ever felt disconnected from the human race and abandoned by God, this is where the naked soul faces the black night of rejection and loss. In an honest grappling with tough contemporary issues without a panacea resolution, and without skirting the “God” issue, each page presents a thought-provoking argument for both non-believers and believers. An engrossing tale with a heart-wrenching twist, The Bittersweet Harvest will keep you turning pages and begging for a family’s redemption. Packed with enrichment activities and study questions, this book is meant to be experienced and shared.
