The Singing Quilt by Kathi Macias

Jolissa Montoya believes God is calling her to work with the disadvantaged children in her inner-city neighborhood. There’s only one problem: The children wouldn’t be able to understand her. Jolissa suffers from a speech impediment and has a thick accent because Spanish is her first language. Ridiculed through much of her youth, she is quite shy and reticent to speak. She is convinced that what God has spoken to her heart is impossible. Impossible, that is, until one day when her confidante shows her a quilt—a quilt that depicts the life of a courageous woman. Can another woman’s courage move her to try the impossible and step out and follow God wherever He leads her?

The Singing Quilt is set against the backdrop of the life of Fanny Crosby, who in addition to writing hundreds of songs was also a well-known public speaker and active in Christian rescue missions despite her disability. Readers will be inspired not to let fear or a disability prevent them from answering what they think is God’s impossible call.

The Singing Quilt is the third book in the contemporary fiction “Quilt” series written by award-winning author Kathi Macias. The series focuses on various social issues, including racial and pro-life issues.

God is big enough to meet us anywhere!

There is not another author who writes with such passion and the Lord shines on every page as Kathi Macias. Kathi really loves the Lord she serves and it shows in her writing.

Forgiveness, Love, and a huge heart and love for the Lord, that is what you will find on every page of this amazing book.

I loved learning about Fanny Crosby with Jolissa. Eva is the grandma we all wish we had. These characters become like family.

Kathi, has really done her research for this book. I really enjoyed reading it and the neat thing was I learned a lot while reading this book.

If you are looking for a book to get away from the world we live in this is your book.

I gave this book 5 stars two times. I HIGHLY recommend this book.

I was given a copy of this book by the author for my honest review.
