The Light Keeper

Created. Cared For. Called. Equipped.

Such lofty thoughts! Yet, try as she might, Dora struggled to embrace them. Mattie, the man she adores, had clearly received a calling from God, but her? Dora wasn’t so sure. Mattie vowed that God had commissioned her also, but to what, he could not say. Perhaps he was mistaken. Besides, how was she supposed to fulfill a calling if she didn’t know what it was?

Inspired by the life of Dora Farncomb (1863-1938), The Light Keeper is the story of one woman’s journey to identify and embrace the vocation to which God has called her. It is sure to challenge and encourage all who desire to respond to God’s call in their own lives despite the cost it might exact. Join Dora as she seeks to identify and fulfill the mission God has given her as Keeper of the Light. The unimaginable hardships she faces along the way would stretch anyone’s faith, yet despite the suffering they beget, she perseveres by clinging to the love of her Lord and resting in the reality of His presence, secure in the knowledge that she belongs to Him.
