Opis

In the midst of a prospering career, Jim and Rita Cmolik heard the Lord calling them to bring His gospel of love to the people of McCreary County, Kentucky. They abandoned the comforts of their home in the Chicago suburbs and moved to the hills and hollers of Appalachia, following God's directive to "teach the people about My love, and show them how to take care of each other " The couple established Hills and Hollers Ministries, a mission organization in their new community, to do just that. This writing is a parable of sorts, a work of fiction in which the story of the joys and heartbreaks of this journey of discovery is brought to us through the lives of Paul and Marie, a husband and wife who continue daily to encounter the Living God "along the road." Reading the account of their journey is a constant reminder that the Lord still calls and equips missionaries of all ages, often at most interesting moments in their lives.
