“There aren’t any flights to Orlando today from here,” the airline representative told me. “Are you sure you are at the right airport?”

Sure enough, at the end of my weekend in DC with my parents on the way to a conference, I had them drop me off at the wrong airport!! (Who does that?!!)

Have you ever found yourself headed the wrong direction? You won’t arrive at the right place starting off on the wrong course—no matter how fast you travel.

Jesus told Nicodemus, that unless a man is born again, he cannot enter the kingdom of heaven and have eternal life. (John 3) This man had been doing everything he thought was right and had even achieved a reputation as a ruler of the Jews. And yet, he was headed in the wrong direction! Jesus then went on to explain that a spiritual rebirth is necessary, placing faith in the Son of God alone.

So if you are heading in the wrong direction, turn around! Get on the right path!

Oh yeah, back to the airport. The agent let me know I had an hour to get to the airport on the other side of town (forty-five minutes away) and directed me to the exit where I could find a shuttle. I dragged my suitcase to a vehicle and tried to curb my impatience as I rode along in the DC traffic. After checking in, I ran through the airport, hearing myself getting paged for the flight. I arrived at the gate just as they were about to shut the doors of the plane!

Despite her grand ambitions, Gloria’s path appeared to be leading her in a direction she didn’t want to go. Slowly, everything she had relied on, prided herself in, was stripped away. Her finances, her apartment, her influence. . .

Readers of the previous books in the series will recognize Gloria as the diva who made the lives of the other women at the dinner theater miserable with her machinations. Sing a New Song gives Gloria an opportunity for redemption – a new start and a new life – as she moves to Branson, Missouri to be part of a new show there.

I’m always interested to see how authors transform the more unlovable characters into men or women of faith. I have found that some make the “former” self so carnal and awful I have a hard time relating to or liking them. Gloria, at least at the start of this book, is not saved and yet I liked her right away. Though she was arrogant and a bit catty, she also had redeeming qualities and as I saw her struggles. I was hoping the best for her.

I especially enjoyed seeing the heart transformation that Gloria went through. Seeing herself in her rival and realizing how unprofessional and ugly her behavior had been helped her to desire to be different. I loved the way she learned such an important lesson through the chickens!

Sing a New Song is told entirely from Gloria’s perspective. While I would have enjoyed seeing what Nick was thinking through parts of it, this is really the way it needed to be told.

There were a number of secondary characters who added depth to the narrative. You’ll love Granny Rose with her sweet humble attitude and Ozark wisdom.

If you haven’t read the other books in this series, don’t let that stop you. Sing a New Song stands on its own. Then again, Candee Fick writes such good stories, it just makes sense to get all of the books and read them from the start.
