The Scarlet Thread

De: Francine Rivers

Narrado por: Angela Rogers, Alma Cuervo

Two women, centuries apart, are joined through a tattered journal as they contend with God, husbands, and even themselves...until they fall into the arms of the One who loves them unconditionally.

Sierra Madrid's life has just been turned upside down when she discovers the handcrafted quilt and journal of her ancestor Mary Kathryn McMurray, a young woman who was uprooted from her home only to endure harsh conditions on the Oregon Trail. Though the women are separated by time and circumstance, Sierra discovers that many of the issues they face are remarkably similar. By following Mary Kathryn's example, Sierra learns to surrender to God?s sovereignty and unconditional love.

Loved It

I've read several Francine Rivers novels over the years, and each of them are amazing. This novel is no exception. This novel made me laugh, cry, think, Etc. Both the narrators were fantastic. I've said this before, but I love how Francine's books make you really look at your own life. Even if the story doesn't match your life exactly, you take away something from each novel.
Thank you audible for putting this novel up. I read this book in 2 days. Another five star read from Francine.
If this is your first Francine Rivers novel, check out Redeeming Love and the Mark Of The Lion trilogy.

IF you want JOY read this inspirational story

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, I love both stories and readers. Excellent book applicable to old and modern times. Very inspirational, I wanted to read something uplifting instead of the stupid flluff Ive been wasting my time on. My friend said she was a Christian Romance author. I will now read and devour everything she has read. Just bought 3 extra credits - it what this world needs!!!

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Scarlet Thread?

The realization of both the two female characters knowledge of how they treated their husbands and how it saved their marriage once they forgave with the love of God, How their terrible trails were for good and brought them to GOD and made them RED HOT with prayer instead of lukewarm and tepid

READ IT was amazing and uplifting!!!

Truly gripping

Such a beautiful book. Francine Rivers never disappoints. Uplifting, heart wrenching, truth. I cried I laughed I was shocked 😲.

Are you a woman struggling the tide of life?

This is a story of two headstrong women in control of their lives rediscovering who they really are through the eyes of the Father—giving Him control of life truly can make all the difference. This book is worth every second and is performed very well by both narrators! Francine Rivers delivers another fantastic book worthy of several bookmarks to review after the last word is spoken—not to mention worthy of a second read! Audible 20 Review Sweepstakes Entry.

I love the characters in this book, they are so real. I learned so much about my own Christian walk.

Wonderful!

Loved it!!!

Fabulous story, with much meaning.
Mary Catherine was my favorite.
I liked how the two story lines were integrated and reflected.

Pleasantly surprised

I didn't like the book at first. I was going through a stressful time in my life. Sierras loss of her mother hit close to home as I recently lost my father & experience many of the same emotions.
When Sierra & Mary Katherine finally turned to the Lord, my heart overflowed.

Inspirational

Wow! Made me take a deep look at myself. My role in arguments with my spouse. very eye opening.
