Josephine's Journey: The Second Epistle to the Corinthians

The year is 1851, and a young man travels the frontier trails searching for his family. Look closely, however, and you might realize this young man is actually twenty-one-year-old Josephine "Jo" Brown, daughter of a Pennsylvanian minister.

Jo longs to be a minister like her father, but by the societal rules of the day, she's "just a woman." Even so, when her family disappears on the Western frontier, Jo sets out to find them.

Dressing as a man offers Jo safe passage, and her bearing and attitude mirror her strong Christian beliefs-so much so that when she reaches her destination, the townsfolk offer her a ministry position in their small church.

In dire need of money, Jo accepts the position, hoping it's part of God's plan. As she continues her search, it becomes apparent that an avaricious land baron has something to do with her family's disappearance. Jo's also strongly attracted to the local sheriff, but can't make her feelings known-at least not while she's wearing a minister's suit.

"Josephine's Journey" introduces readers to Jo, a self-reliant, determined woman with an unshakable belief in God's ability to help her overcome the impossible.
