"But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart" Luke 2:19 A distinguishing mark of this work is that Sylvia Roache has used her inspired imagination to penetrate and explore the understandable silence of scripture in the gospel writings. With a mother's wit and insight as well as her experience of being a fulfilled pastoral spouse, she deftly and romantically places thoughts into the minds especially of Mary and Joseph. Mary's occasional soliloquy makes delightful reading. This is not a runaway imagination. It stays reasonably faithful to her substantial digest of the biblical narrative. The seasoned student of scripture might feel there is some amount of repetition, but that may be more apparent than real. Especially for the less than skilled reader of scripture, the author's treatment of the material will underscore and reinforce the reader's grasp meaningfully. As you read through this book which could in some ways be styled a romantic spiritual novel, you will discover that authentic testimony, multiple teaching moments, discipleship, exegesis and application of biblical wisdom principles are strategically weaved into the narrative. The very strong theme of affinity among family and none family members will certainly arrest the reader's notice. Not only that, but every thoughtful woman could experience being in Mary's skin upon reading through this inspiring work that has been bathed in much prayer. Do you have a mother's heart in search of more spiritual virtues, or do you aspire to motherhood that emulates mother Mary's? Then you are a candidate for a heart that is a spiritual treasure chest. Enjoy! Reginald G. Smith, D. Min.
