Synopsis

Jake and I have called off the wedding. Amanda's mother, doing dishes at the sink, froze at Amanda's words. Her father stared at her in dismay. But why? her mother asked. You both seem so happy together. Is it a worthiness issue? Her father turned a grim eye on Jake, who blushed. No, sir, he said. It s nothing like that. Then why? her mother repeated. Amanda took a deep breath. Because I'm going on a mission. Amanda knows there's a certain family out there who needs the gospel and she also knows she's the one who's supposed to bring it to them. Her recurring dream makes it seem urgent the dream with the shiny gold frame and the vaguely familiar faces smiling down at her. The dream in which her grandmother says, You must find them. You're the only one who can. When Amanda gets to California and starts teaching, she wonders which family she was sent there to find. What happens next is something she never would have expected. Turning Hearts is an inspiring story of faith, love, and the bittersweet struggle of one missionary trying to save that special soul.
