Come join the now universally known women of Hope Springs Community Church, in North Carolina, for the third installment in Lynne Hinton's "Hope Springs" series. Watch as the women must embrace the endurance of friendship, as one of their own leaves the group. See how no-matter-what, friendship can endure and go the distance.

Celebrate the strength, humor, and abiding love that all of us desire in our relationships, and walk with these friends through the valleys and atop the mountains that the human heart must journey on the road of life.

The scriptures speak of "hope" as an enduring quality of the Christian life, and these women show how it can be applied to every day life and the toils and disappointments that must be endured.

Wrap yourself in a favorite quilt or blanket, get a steaming cup of coffee, and feast on the dessert that Hinton serves up in this third volume. This is Southern Living at its best!

The "Hope Springs" series of "Friendship Cake," "Hope Springs," and, now, "Forever Friends," has been used successfully in Christian Women's Group Classes across the nation as a text for building character and deepening relationships!
