Hannah Hurnard created the story of Much Afraid, a young girl hoping to travel from the Valley of Humiliation to the High Places. Along the way, she meets a number of memorable characters - including the Family of Fearings, Cousin Pride, Mrs. Valiant, Mercy, and Peace. Much Afraid also meets the ever-caring Shepherd, who helps her on her journey, at the end of which she receives a new name: Grace and Glory. This is the allegorical tale of Much-Afraid, and every-woman searching for guidance from God to lead her to a higher place.
Hind's Feet on High Places was our first book. Our group derived it's name from the name the Shepherd gave to Much Afraid when she received the fulfillment of His promise. "Never am I to call you Much-Afraid again." "The Lord God is a sun and shield: the Lord will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly" (Ps. 84:11). "This is your new name," he declared. "From henceforth you are Grace and Glory." If you are new to this site, we encourage you to read Hind's Feet on High Places.
We have gone back and posted comments for this book in hopes that you will glean inspiration from them...
