A Touch of Bittersweet

The Galilean woman presses through the crowd one day in Capernaum, touches the tassel of the radical rabbi's robe and is healed. She naively assumes that all of her problems are over, but her troubles are only beginning, She is alienating almost everyone important to her. Caught in the powerless role of a woman in the first-century world, she must choose where her happiness lies-in the security of a marriage and friendship in which her beliefs are forfeited, or with the group who leaves all security behind to follow Jesus. Nan Seefluth lives with her husband in a beautiful senior lifestyle community in southern Ohio. She is the author of devotionals and short stories. This is her first novel.
