Acerca de esta escucha
What's a young, idealistic, novice pastor got to learn from the congregation at Loving the Lord Community Church? A lot!
Twenty-six and single, Maggie Elzinga has just graduated from seminary and received a call to pastor a church in the town of Cherish, Michigan. Idealistic, impetuous, enthusiastic, and short on life experience, Maggie jumps in with both feet.
With her on the journey are a cast of colorful characters who support, amuse, and challenge her daily.
For Maggie, it's a year of firsts: first funeral, first baptism, and the hope of a first wedding. But much more awaits her at Loving the Lord Community Church and in the little town of Cherish. Parking tickets, abandoned cats, and little white lies pop up to make her question what she believes is right and good, and a sprinkling of romance provides a happy distraction.
Maggie faces her happiest moments and her deepest sorrow while serving the good people of her little church. She learns that being part of a community can be simultaneously suffocating and life-giving. Her bright attitude and hopefulness carry her through the difficult times as she becomes a full-fledged pastor.

Historia
At the end of her rope, single mom Lily Anderson is determined to move her rebellious children in the right direction. That means taking away their cell phones, tablets, and computers—at least temporarily—and moving to the house where Lily grew up in the rural town of Comfort, Texas. But Lily has a bigger challenge than two sulking teens. The house comes with Mack Cooper, high school teacher and handsome longtime renter. The arrangement: just housemates. But Mack’s devoted attention to the kids starts to warm Lily’s resistant heart.

Historia
Nestled in the mountain shadows of Alabama lies the little town of Wicklow. It is here that Anna Kate has returned to bury her beloved Granny Zee, owner of the Blackbird Café. It was supposed to be a quick trip to close the café and settle her grandmother’s estate, but despite her best intentions to avoid forming ties or even getting to know her father’s side of the family, Anna Kate finds herself inexplicably drawn to the quirky Southern town her mother ran away from so many years ago, and the mysterious blackbird pie everybody can’t stop talking about.

Apart from their foster mom, Miss Janie, they don’t have many fond memories of their hometown. Or of each other.

Family doesn’t mean everyone has to like each other. That’s the case when cousins Taryn, Anna Rose, and Jorja return to Shamrock, Texas, to help manage their grandmother’s flower shop, the Lucky Shamrock. The reunion isn’t exactly a beautiful arrangement—considering they’re as compatible as ranchers and coyotes. Thank heaven for a handsome go-between like Clinton, who lives above the shop.

When Haze Evans first appeared in the small-town newspaper, she earned fans by writing a story about her bachelor uncle who brought a Queen of the Rodeo to Thanksgiving dinner. Now, 50 years later, when the beloved columnist suffers a massive stroke and falls into a coma, publisher Susan McGrath fills the void (temporarily, she hopes) with Haze's past columns, along with the occasional reprinted responses from readers. Most letters were favorable, although Haze did have her trolls; one Joseph Snell in particular dubbed her "liberal" ideas the "chronicles of a radical hag."

With the help of five loyal members of the Naomi Circle, the young, bold minister brainstorms fundraising ideas.

The book follows Pastor Maggie, a young and passionate pastor, as she leads her congregation through the everyday challenges that come up in a church year. From her own personal struggles, to the congregation's relationship with each other, Maggie's joy and spirit for life brings out the goodness in everyone. This story does not shy away from big feelings, as Pastor Maggie falls in love, deals with the death of her beloved mentor, and in the end is uplifted by the congregation she has been working hard for.
I already was a fan of the written form of the Pastor Maggie series. But the audible version read by the author blew me away! In her voice, the characters really come to life. You will fall in love with Pastor Maggie, a young, energetic, bright spirited pastor working in her first church. You will fall in love with her colleagues: Hank, the good natured secretary; Irina, the quirky and opinionated organist. You will fall in love with the whole congregation - even cranky Mrs. Abernathy - and cheer them on as they learn and grow.
The story itself is well-crafted and well-paced. It moves between moments of joy, delight, sorrow, and reflection, while maintaining a nice balance between character development and plot progression. Readers will be inspired by Pastor Maggie's relentless joy and dedication, and it is sure to bring a smile to anyone who listens. Highly recommend.

Newly ordained Pastor Maggie is called to Loving the Lord Church to lead the small, sometimes temperamental congregation. Maggie’s enthusiasm and affection pull the varied personalities together as they support each other through the joys and turmoil of a typical, small church. We also experience Maggie's internal struggle as she faces faith challenges and grows as a pastor.
The audio book is a self-contained story, but there are more enjoyable tales of Loving the Lord Church to be shared. I look forward to more audio books based on the Pastor Maggie print series.
