About this listen
There's something different about Faith Countryman. It's not just her beauty, quick wit, or quirky sense of humor either. It's that she's divinely inspired.
Born under a crashing rainstorm on a ranch in central California, Faith discovers her gift of healing as a young girl. But poor judgment causes her to run away with her boyfriend to Los Angeles. It seems like the biggest mistake of her life until a surprising turn of events leads her to a place she's never heard of - a Victorian house in Cross Creek.
When Faith arrives, she steps into her destiny, sharing her gift with love and a confident spirit. As she meets the town's colorful characters - a handsome, heartbroken rancher among them - it's clear she's been brought here for a reason: to heal this community and to help them believe. The summer heats up. Testimonies are given. Change is underway, and plans begin for an old-fashioned tent revival.
Then a warm summer rain falls, bringing temptation and Faith's deepest fears. Will she be able to trust in God's love once again and heal the people of Cross Creek - and herself?

Ruth Wariner was the 39th of her father's 42 children. Growing up on a farm in rural Mexico, where authorities turned a blind eye to the practices of her community, Ruth lives in a ramshackle house without indoor plumbing or electricity. At church, preachers teach that God will punish the wicked by destroying the world and that women can ascend to heaven only by entering into polygamous marriages and giving birth to as many children as possible.

Why exactly Charley Bordelon's late father left her eight hundred sprawling acres of sugarcane land in rural Louisiana is as mysterious as it was generous. Recognizing this as a chance to start over, Charley and her 11-year-old daughter, Micah, say good-bye to Los Angeles. They arrive just in time for growing season but no amount of planning can prepare Charley for a Louisiana that's mired in the past: as her judgmental but big-hearted grandmother tells her, cane farming is always going to be a white man's business.

As she pursues her seemingly absurd quest, horrible realities spark the question, “What kind of a God would allow such tragedy?”

Leah is a child from Away, isolated from her peers because of her stutter. After her family moves to Mattingly, she begins painting scenes that are epic in scope, brilliant in detail, and suffused with rich, prophetic imagery. When the event foreshadowed in the first painting dramatically comes true, the town takes notice. Leah attributes her ability to foretell the future to an invisible friend she calls the Rainbow Man. Some of the townsfolk are enchanted with her. Others fear her. But there is one thing they all agree on—there is no such thing as the Rainbow Man.

Eleven-year-old Grace Carter has a talent for hiding things. She's had plenty of practice, burying thoughts and feelings that might anger her strict evangelical pastor father. The Knowing, as Grace calls it, offers glimpses of people's pasts and futures. It enables her to see into the depth of her mother's sadness, and even allows Grace to talk to Isaac, her twin brother who died at birth. To her wise, loving Aunt Pearl, the Knowing is a family gift; to her daddy, it's close to witchcraft.

Inspiratonal Story, well told tale
What did you love best about Faith Countryman?
I loved this book and was so sad when it was over. The book is so well written that you feel like you are transported to their community and that you know everyone so well.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Faith Countryman?
I love that as Faith was spreading her strength, love and faith to everyone she encountered, we watched her transform lives in many different ways and it became an encouraging and possible way to walk through this world.
Have you listened to any of Dara Rosenberg’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Dara's portrayal of all the characters were good but I especially loved her Faith. By bringing such tenderness to her voice, you could really feel the love that Faith brought to each relationship.
Any additional comments?
Hallelujah baby!
