Product Description
by Elizabeth Lonseth (Author)
The Things Hoped For takes the reader back in time to pre-World War 1 as the world begins to change dramatically. Unlike the three previous books in the series, it starts in Norway.
Arvik Johansen has immigrated to the United States with two boyhood friends, and eventually settles on Orcas Island, in the Puget Sound waterways of Washington State. His desire for a wife from Norway begins the saga.
Gudrun Sagen is living in Lillesand, Norway. While at a crossroads in her life she indirectly receives an offer from America. Trusting God's leading, she decides to leave Norway for life as a wife instead of a servant.
Both Arvik and Gudrun have things they are hoping for, but will it turn out as they hope?
As in each book of the series, covering multiple generations - Elizabeth Lonseth has developed main characters who walk closely with God, trusting in His guidance, each in their own time in history.
Readers will enjoy The Things Hoped For, and the entire Johansen Family Saga with its enthralling mixture of daily life, faith, love, and adventure!
