Someone They Can Trust: A Novel by Colleen Scheid [REVIEW]

SYNOPSIS

Three devoted staff of a thriving, creative church are derailed when a corrupt leader breaks their trust

When art school graduate Maya Devin moves to Pleasant Hill, she’s warmly welcomed into its thriving, diverse church. Music minister, Matt Schuller, who is more than a little attracted by Maya’s faith, talent, and beauty, invites her to be a part of his creative arts ministry. Janice Williams, also on staff, befriends Maya too, supporting her as she learns to be a caregiver to her grandmother with Alzheimer’s. Janice is healing from a wrenching divorce and draws strength from the welcoming community.
The church is a haven for all three until a new pastor puts their faith, hope, and love to a severe test. Not only is their happiness at stake – so is the survival of the church.

Their courage to stand against evil will hinge on one thing – how willing are they to deal with their own brokenness?

REVIEW

Love this quote…”Don’t worry about whether other people want you to do something. Just ask yourself, does God want it done?”

I enjoyed the depth of the characters and the way Scheid handled the delicate subject matter.

I noticed a few spelling/grammatical errors but they didn’t detract from my enjoyment of the story.
