Stepping Heavenward: One Woman's Journey to Godliness (Inspirational Library Series)

How dreadfully old I am getting! Sixteen! So begins 'Stepping Heavenward' by Elizabeth Prentiss, the journal-like account of a nineteenth century girl who learns, on the path to womanhood, that true happiness can be found in giving oneself for others. This book is a treasure of both Godly and womanly wisdom told with disarming candor and humility, yet revealing a deep heart's desire to know God, says noted Christian speaker Elisabeth Elliot. I do not hesitate to recommend it to men, who need to understand the wives they live with, and to any woman who wants to walk with God.
