Call of a Coward by Marcia Moston

Call of a Coward
The God of Moses and the Middle-Class Housewife
by Marcia Moston 

Call of a Coward is about a husband feeling the call of the Lord for his family to go and serve as missionaries in Guatemala and the struggle with the decision and the events that unfolded.

This is a wonderful book.  It is a moving memoir.  I was hoping it would make me wonder what I would do should my husband be lead somewhere I didn't think I would want to go and it did just that.  I really enjoy how Mrs. Moston takes us through the journey of her feelings and the process of this major decision.  I enjoyed that it wasn't just a "Disney" type ending or situation once the choice was made.

I would recommend this book for any Christian, it would be a great one to pick up to take on a vacation or over a holiday break because it is not too long and is very enjoyable yet challenging. 

I was provided a free copy of this book for the purposes of review, the opinions expressed are my own.
