I had such mixed feelings about this book. It is a Christian allegory, that has some great themes, and it does make you think, but I wasn't a fan of the writing style. Much-Afraid is called by the Shepherd to make a journey to His Kingdom of Love, where he will give her a new name. It was a really strange mix of biblical language and more modern language. She kept switching between Thee and Thou and You, etc. Also, it was really repetitive. The descriptions were wordy, but repetitive. I felt like I was having De'ja vu. I also felt like I was being spoon-fed a majority of the time. It actually has some very similar themes to Till We Have Faces by C.S. Lewis, which I will be re-reading for my challenges this year, but Till We Have Faces is far superior in my opinion. There was one part in this book that drove me crazy. The Shepherd asks Much-Afraid if she would still love Him if he seemed to deceive her. She replied that she knows He cannot lie, so she would still love him. Then He asks if she would still love Him if he really did deceive her. She replied that, yes, it wouldn't matter if He really liked to her, she loves him and would still follow him. Now, I'm not a theologian or anything, but this makes absolutely no sense to me. The Shepherd is God. God cannot lie. So, if the Shepherd could lie it would mean he is not God, so she shouldn't follow him in that case. It was just a really weird scene. I do think that some people would really like this book, and I did relate in certain ways, so it's definitely a mixed bag for me. ( )

A timeless allegory dramatizing the yearning of God’s children to be led to new heights of love, joy, and victory.

I’ve loved allegories since I was too young to understand them—merely enjoyed the stories they gave me—but I didn’t come across Hinds’ Feet until a bit later in life. What a wonderful book! I discovered I had a lot in common with Much-Afraid—more than I like to admit a lot of the time. And combined with some of the lessons she learned along the way, I’ve still got a lot of things to ponder. This stretched and encouraged me, and has stayed with me much longer than I thought it might. If you enjoy stories that pull you closer to Jesus, this is a good choice. This will definitely be a re-read for me! ( )

Beautiful book. It really helped me to understand Jesus and His love for me as I heal from losing my 6th-month-old baby. ( )
