CFOM: Women's History Month & Modern Day Slavery Spotlight

What Does the Lord Require of Me?

An Interview with Kay Marshall Strom

March is one of my favorite months because my daughter, Selah, was born this month, and March is National Women’s History Month. I am a huge history buff, so I read tons of historical fiction, particularly history that discusses the transatlantic slave trade. Imagine my surprise when I found a book about a female abolitionist that was written with a Christian POV by a female author who is a twenty-first-century abolitionist! I enjoyed this book so much I listed it as one of the best Christian fiction historicals written in 2010.

Therefore, this month I am honored to introduce you to Kay Marshall Strom and her Grace in Africa trilogy (Abingdon Press) at Christian Fiction Online Magazine. We will discuss the new type of slavery that is stealing young girls globally, human trafficking, and the taboo topic of transatlantic slavery and Christianity.

But through the battle she finds a reservoir of courage she never knew she had and the loving arms of a God she never quite believed existed
