Sunrise on the Battery is an emotional
story about a family trying to find their way towards there faith in
God. I was pleasantly surprised when I received this book free, in
exchange of my honest review thanks BookSneeze & the Thomas
Nelson publishing company.
The beginning of this book was quite
dry & it took a little while to pick up speed & interest for
me. The author Beth Webb Hart allowed me to follow the Scoville
family as they journeyed together to find a comfortable place with
God. The Scovilles were a well to do family from Charleston who had
no wants in the world, yet the mother Mary Lynn felt an emptiness in
her life that no number of social obligations or worldly possessions
could full-fill. However once she joined the social ministry at her
local church she began to feel uplifted & complete, until she
asked God to help her husband Jackson find the faith as well.
Only, to her surprise when Jackson
began his journey towards the faith he “went all in” by
committing social suicide to which Mary Lynn began to resent her
husband. She never dreamed of him helping the homeless & the
prostitutes in the manner that he did.
