The Miting - An Old Order Amish Novel

Leah is seventeen, Amish and like many her age, she has lots of questions.

She wants to know why Amish life is the only lifestyle her family accepts, why the church has so many rules and how godly men can allow her best friend to be abused.

In the pressure-cooker environment of church and family, Leah is not allowed to ask these questions.

When she finally reaches breaking point, she walks away from the Old Order Amish life that is all she has known.

Though adapting to the outside world, Leah is tormented with homesickness.

Returning to the community, however, entails a journey of pain and sorrow Leah could never have imagined.

The miting (shunning) poses challenges never previously encountered throughout her devotional life.

Is the price her bishop and her family ask of her one she is willing to pay?
