Book excerpt: Wind-Borne Sister narrates the story of a young woman's journey from grief and an uncertain future into a sense of purpose, hope, and identity. Along Brie's travels, the people and resources she encounters contribute to her unfolding sense of call and her growing, vibrant faith. As she is drawn deeper into a risk-filled mystery, she is blessed by the aid of Susannah, a wise, blind artist; precocious seven-year-old Lily Mae; and the tender and resourceful Toby Graham. Despite conflict and an ever-present danger, Brie's Christian beliefs, vital friendships, and mystical gift of healing carry her forward in unexpected and dynamic ways. In the midst of adventures and challenges, Wind-Borne Sister showcases the importance of trusting one's heart, the rich gift of life in community, and the stunning and steadfast power of prayer.
