My Journey into the Amish World

De: Haley Straw

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

When Haley moves from the big city to the Midwest in search of a simpler life, she's introduced to a misunderstood community: The Amish, who still travel by horse and buggy.

Knowing little about them, Haley assumes they rarely interact with outsiders, let alone travel, and live a higher moral standard than the rest of us. Raised Mormon and struggling to save her marriage, Haley secretly wonders if the Amish hold the keys to being closer to God, their families, and their communities.

Haley embarks on an adventure where all her assumptions about the Amish begin to unravel. Once the Amish discover Haley's 12-passenger van, they enlist her as their taxi driver. On each journey, the characters riding along teach her something new about the Amish, and Haley learns that they are prone to the same weaknesses as the rest of us. Yet, in each story, Haley learns something about herself, her family, faith, and how much we all have in common.

Journey with Haley as she drives the Amish to weddings, funerals, reunions, and even a nose balloon specialist, as they share their deepest thoughts and most lighthearted anecdotes. These true stories will shatter your misconceptions about one of our most secretive communities, the Amish, and renew your faith in the bond we all share as human beings.
