The spiritual journey takes unexpected turns for the women of Sensible Shoes in this third book of the series, continuing on from the events of Two Steps Forward. Having been challenged to persevere in hope, can they now embrace the joy of complete surrender?
Mara: With two boys at home and a divorce on the way, can she let go of her resentment and bitterness and find a rhythm of grace in her "new normal"?
Hannah: With Nathan by her side, can she let go of expectations—and even her reputation—as she charts a new course?
Charissa: As her approaching due date threatens to collide with new professional opportunities, can she let go of her need for control and embrace the unknown future with trust?
Meg: With disappointment over broken relationships and unfulfilled dreams, can she let go of her fear and worry in the face of even greater challenges that lie ahead?
Join the women of the Sensible Shoes Club in a poignant story that reveals the joy that comes from laying our lives at the feet of God and standing barefoot on holy ground.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I stumbled on books 1 and 2 of this series on sale on Kindle. I was delighted to realize there was a third book, and Netgalley provided a review so that I wouldn't have to wait until release day. This book was bittersweet. I feel that there were some open ends, and I don't know if there's supposed to be another book. I do hope so.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This book really blessed me—just like all the books in this series have so far. I feel like this one touched me more than some, perhaps; the concept of surrender has been a reoccurring theme for me lately, so seeing that here, displayed through four different women’s lives, was both beautiful and stepped on my toes a bit more than I expected! A good continuation to the series, although I didn’t agree with everything here. I don’t believe the part with a woman marrying a divorced man is Biblical, and my rating is down some because of that—otherwise, it would be an easy five stars. As I’ve come to expect, though, despite not agreeing with everything here, I’ve still come away with a lot to ponder over. Can’t wait to read the next book!
