About this title

About the Author

Taryn R. Hutchison has published several short stories and articles, but this is her debut book. She hails from a town on the Eastern Shore of Maryland with a booming population of 75 people, three million chickens, and several dogs.  Taryn loves people, art, storytelling, and travel. She's visited all 50 states, lots of countries, and every continent except Antarctica - having lived all over the U.S. and even Romania and Hungary. She prefers the real local culture to a tourist resort any day. Taryn served on staff with Campus Crusade for Christ for 21 years, later working at Golden Gate Seminary. She and her husband recently relocated from the bustling San Francisco Bay area to a sleepy town in western North Carolina.

From the Back Cover

"We wait you. Why did you take so long?"

-Taryn Hutchison was asked this poignant question after her lecture on democracy to a class in Bucharest, Romania. Communism had just fallen.

"We waited 45 years for the Americans to come and set us free. We used to say that even if you were coming in a wheelbarrow, you should be here by now."

-The Americans had come at last, but it was to offer a different kind of freedom-freedom that lasts forever.

Inspiring and with humorous moments, "We Wait You: Waiting on God in Eastern Europe" is an uplifting story of hearts transformed as political systems are rebuilt. Unlike any missionary story you've read before, it is told by a regular person attempting to manage real life--mud and all--in a foreign culture while struggling to wait on God. History will come alive as you journey with Taryn through Romania, Hungary, Albania, and Russia during the decade after the Berlin wall came down. You will learn to trust God to provide everything you need in order to do whatever He calls you to do, wherever that may be.

Questions for reflection or discussion, included after each chapter, will guide you as you consider: Who waits for you?

Now, twenty years after the 1989 revolutions, relive the unforgettable drama of the historic events that changed Eastern Europe-against all hope.
