About the Book

When Christian talk show host Serenity Williams’ fiancé calls off their wedding because he can’t deal with her popularity, she determines that she will never fall in love with another pride-filled, ego-driven pastor. Then, Serenity’s producer asks her to interview the charismatic Pastor Phillip McKnight, who has recently gone through a divorce. Serenity feels that this is her chance to expose the arrogance of ego-filled pastors to the world. But Pastor Phillip is broken and humbled from his experiences, and the surprising humility of this man causes Serenity to want to un-break his heart. However, Serenity will need the Lord to fix her heart and change her mind about male preachers before she and Phillip can become all they were meant to be to each other.

Book Review

I loved Vanessa Miller’s Yesterday’s Promise which is a delightful romantic story that addresses the relevant social issue of women in ministry with honesty in a balanced manner. A Love for Tommorw contines to explore the theme of women in the ministry. This time we see issues that women in ministry or any ministerial leader must address which could impact the integrity and effectiveness of their ministry. Further , it explores the negative impact being a ” preacher’s kid” can have on that son or daughter’s view of church. It also touches upon the issue of male ministerial leaders with big ego’s being threatened by a female minister’s anointing. Miller’s simple crisp language and style and well developed characters makes this an enjoyable book to read.
