Intents of the Heart #0

by Lezlie Word Tyson

Woven in the grit of the Great Depression and the determination of the Second World War, Some Trust in Chariots is an endearing love story that will thrill fans of the Intents of the Heart Series while welcoming new readers to the joys and sorrows of the Preston family saga. It is the story of Malcolm and Carolyn Thomas Preston, the Christian couple who would later open their home and hearts to Lauren Mitchell, the troubled youth who is the central character of the novel series. Discover childhood influences, such as the unflappable Granny Preston, and search the deep spiritual roots that grounded them not only in their faith in God but in their commitment to each other. Chuckle as courtship mishaps abound as these two independent forces collide and weep with them as a global war turns their world upside down and separation must be endured. Reunions are sometimes bittersweet, and difficulties are sure to follow. Faith and prayer are their only weapons come along for the journey to the beginning of their remarkable legacy that will be revealed in Intents of the Heart.

This is the story of how Malcolm and Carolyn came into the world and how they met and became a family. The majority of the story is set during the time of the Second World War. The backdrop of the depression and the war are not the total focus of the story. The time period definitely is a focus but the story of the Preston and Thomas families are more than just when it was happening. It is about how they focused on family and making Christ the center of those families. It didn't stop the struggles and the drama but knowing the Lord was there to support and guide them kept them together for the long haul.

I enjoyed this story and hope that the other Intents of the Heart volumes are available so I can continue following the story.
