Mountains of Spices - by Hannah Hurnard (Paperback)

About the Book

An allegory ofthe nine spices mentioned in the Song of Solomon compared with the nine fruits of the Spirit.

Book Synopsis

Your greatest weaknesses--when surrendered to Christ--can be transformed into your loveliest strengths.

Mountains of Spices, a sequel to Hinds' Feet on High Places, is a powerful allegory that personifies unhappy, tormenting attitudes of heart, mind, and temperament. Meet Mrs. Dismal Forebodings, Old Lord Fearing, Sir Arrogant, Umbrage, Resentment, Craven Fear, and others. Contrast their lives with the lives of Grace and Glory, Mrs. Valiant, Mercy, Joy, and Peace.

Feel the tension as the tug of something better stirs unrest among the inhabitants of the Valley of Humiliation. Not all respond to the Shepherd's gentle touch, but those who do discover that "love turned outward is true life."

In this Christian classic, you will find:

• The surprising connection between the Fruit of the Spirit listed in Galatians and the spices referenced in Song of Solomon
• Inspiration to journey toward God and surrender to His compassionate leading
• Scripture references and original poems woven throughout to create a rich, beautiful reading experience

Let Mountains of Spices lead you on a journey of personal and spiritual growth where all your flaws are made new through the gracious power of Jesus.
