Christian
romance novelist, Vanessa Miller, reminds us that the steps of a man,
or a woman, are ordered by the Lord, no matter what plans they may
make, in her upcoming release, Yesterday's Promise. She
beautifully intertwines this underlying theme as she takes on the
long-standing issue of women preachers through the interaction between
Melinda Johnson and her ex-fiance, Steven Marks.
Melinda
Johnson has always felt called to ministry. So, when her father, Bishop
Langston Johnson, decides to step down after thirty years of leadership
at Omega Christian Center, it seems only natural for her to take his
place. But Bishop Johnson feels led by God to appoint Steven Marks to
succeed him, a man who is opposed to female pastors, not to mention the
fact that he is Melinda's ex-fiance.
