This is the second series of books I have read by Karen Kingsbury. Her books are so inspirational, easy to read (or listen to in this case), and always heartwarming. I am a nurse with a 40 minute commute, three days a week to work. After over eight years of doing this,I have finally found a way to make it enjoyable. Audio books are definately the was to go for me. The Redemption Collection has touched my heart in so many ways. Starting and ending my twelve hour shifs with the joys, sorrow, triumphs, pain and the love of God through the Baxter family, has been a truly unique experience for me. I will be reading more books by Karen Kingsbury and soon.
I bought this set of CD's for my 80 yr old mother who is blind. She has found much joy in listening to these CD's. I have now purchased the next set "Firstborn" and she is enjoying them as well. Please hurry with the next set.....she's anticipating the further adventures of the Baxter family.
This is the series that saved me on our 13 hour car trip (one way!)with three kids, a mouse and a guinea pig in the vehicle. I had bought this audio book originally to help me stay focused during work-outs. Vacation time interruped my high goals, as we listened intently to the ongoings of the Baxter family. It's family friendly, showing how adults make mistakes but there is always a way back to God. It includes Bible quotes, is inspirational and leaves you feeling hopeful.
I read this series and then purchased the audio version to listen to with my children in the car. I was so disappointed that it was NOT unabridged. I found myself again and again stopping the CD to explain what had happened. . .they would ask how one character got from here-to-there. . .I just don't like books that are not unabridged and I didn't see clearly anywhere in the product description online that I was only going to get the condensed version. I would just ask to make this more clear in the future.
If you have not had a chance to read or listen to the Redemption Series by Karen...this is the one you need to get.As other reviewers have mentioned though, the audio is abridged and that might pose a problem for some. I had read the books first and so I was able to follow what was going on. Though I still would not discount the CD series.Karen's writing is a blessing and encouragement In this series she follow the multi generational family of the Baxters. Through the story, you come to see a family that deals with real issues and conflict and pain and misunderstandings. Sometimes in Christian fiction, you don't get that honesty.For me, Karen was able to draw me into each character that I felt like I knew the family very well. They were a diverse group of family members.I just did not want the story to end.I re read the series twice and then purchased these CD'sI ended up donating them to our local library as I wanted to share this story with people who are looking for good writing that is not filled with violence and sex.It is refreshing to find such an author.
Great Product!! This whole series with the Baxter Family is great. Has alot of life lessons.
So disappointed! I LOVE Karen Kingsbury and audio CDs. The problem with this set is that it is ABRIDGED! I did not read the fine print. Believe me TOO much is left out of the audio version. I listen on my way to work and then read a chapter or two if I have time when I get home! WOW ... I just stopped listening and will return them.Will always make sure I never, ever get abridged again!
This series by Karen Kingsbury is inspiring in that it traces a family over a period of years exposing their flaws and accomplishments. The story line is fairly fast paced and enjoyable reading.
