"For Mennonites and Amish, or any people who take their community of faith seriously, such a body can be loving arms of support or a smothering embrace. For Nevin and Esther and their family-and for so many others then and now-the church became a combination of these two experiences. Surveying a life of ministry ranging from Greenwood, Delaware, to Philadelphia, Mississippi, and beyond, this book tells how Nevin and Esther found the church a place of intense joy and at times painful disappointment."
