Inspirational Fiction

 

Sam Tibbits grew up in the sixties and he loved his family’s summer trips to Piddock Beach. It was during their first trip that he meets Aubrey McCart. Over the years Aubrey became Sam’s best friend and then his first love, a person he thought would be in his life forever. Both Aubrey and Sam stayed in touch. When Sam felt he'd been called to the ministry, he wanted to talk with Aubrey, to ask her to take this new journey with him. But, after driving for more than two days, he finds that Aubrey and her family have left with no forwarding address and no reason for their fast departure. He is hurt, bewildered and lost with no idea if he’ll ever see her again. But life must go on.

 

Years later Sam is pastor of Covenant Heights Church and still single. He struggles with his doubts about his life’s calling, as well as recent events in his life. He returns to Piddock Beach . He hopes to reconnect with the enthusiasm of his youth and maybe to regain his passion for his ministry. Sam never expects to find Aubrey making a trip back to the past as well. Both find themselves confronting the past and struggling with the present. Can they find peace?  Can Sam find his way back to his previous joy in his calling or was he mistaken in where his life was meant to go?

 

In REMEMBER ME,  Ms. Bedford has written a story that is both emotional and inspiring without being overpowering. We are introduced to a man who while still believing that God has a plan for him, wonders if he misunderstood that plan years ago. Fans of Ms. Bedford’s previous work are sure to love REMEMBER ME. Those new to her are just as likely to find a new author to adore.
