It sounds interesting.

When my parents built their house, over four decades ago, a local located where to dig their well by means of 'water-witching'. My parents were good Baptists, abhorred witchcraft, and laughed at superstition. But water witching was such an ordinary part of the fabric of rural life to them they didn't think anything of it, regarding it as folk wisdom rather than supernatural ability. The well is still providing water.

I really had no idea what to expect and was surprised and engaged the whole way through.

I grew up in a rural area; my grandfather found water like that. Very curious.

…but we shall all be changed.

The title alone is intriguing enough and I agree with the others that your review swayed me! I definitely prefer hopeful and redemptive endings. Thanks!

Amy, you’ve connected the dots! The title quotes 1 Cor 15.51; the rest of the book offers a glimpse of the change—none of it predictable.

This did not initially sound like something I would enjoy, but your review tempted me.

The book wraps up beautifully. I didn’t want to allude to too much, but it presents a remarkable redemption.
