Summary
Overall This is the third book in the KingsburySmalley collaboration called the Redemption series. Return picks up with the youngest of the five Baxter children continuing in his rejection of God and all he was raised to believe. In addition, Ashley child number three is working through her return to the faith she had once rejected. \"Listening\" to the thought processes of the characters is insightful. First, as a means to gain understanding of how life events and choices can sidetrack one's belief system. Secondly, as a means to gain insight into yourself. Of course, this is the purpose of the series: to be able to reflect upon relationships. My only complaint is that
the resolution to the problems seem a little predictable. But it is still a great, uplifting read!
