About this listen
Just as it seems life is opening before Violet with unlimited possibilities for her future, her hometown of Atlanta is devastated by a citywide fire, and her idolized older brother heads off to France as an officer in the Great War. Violet's safe, tight-knit family is about to be tested beyond anything they have ever experienced, and her dreams for the future keep colliding with forces outside her control and a rapidly changing culture.
While she tries to rebuild her life from loss after loss, two very different young ministers both profess her place in their own dreams for the future. As her childhood faith is shaken to its very core, Violet must determine who she truly is, what she most wants, and what it means to love.

Perfectly Paced Faith Driven Story
Jennifer Q Hunt is a new to me author. Some Through the Fire is a good paced, faith driven, historical fiction. The audio book was outstanding. Rebecca Evans captured the emotional essence of this book with her inflection so well.
Scripture and faith elements were woven seamlessly and naturally throughout the story. The romance elements were not trite or overly done. If you love Lynn Austin’s historical fiction you will probably enjoy this book too. Loved the reminders of the simplicity of the gospel. I plan to purchase a print copy to highlight my favorite quotes including: “There is nothing that I will not give that I may know Him… If I have to understand God it is my own mind I worship and if I have to control him it’s my own will I worship, and if I have to feel him it’s my emotions I worship but if I only have to love and obey him then I worship him in spirit and in truth and in worshiping him I have life.”
Such a fantastic story!

Lovely Story
Jennifer does a great job making you feel like you’re really in the late 1910s. Her writing evokes emotions with descriptions of what the characters experience reminding you of what the real people of this time went through. The excellent depictions of lives lived for the Lord are an added bonus to this wonderful novel.

I absolutely loved this story so much!!
This was a beautiful story of a family overcoming hardships around WW2 and had beautiful gospel truth woven throughout which made the whole thing so sweet. I especially loved the weaving of hymns throughout!

Profound Christian Truths
What a satisfying story! It has such likable characters going through some intensely tumultuous and challenging times (the Spanish Flu anyone?). I love how Hunt moves a story along, with multiple POV’s but in such fluid motion. This is NOT an easy task. Her books feel like a whole family affair, which I love. You become immersed in the world, the time period and even the church politics of the day. As always, Hunts ability to weave profound truth throughout her narrative is beautifully done. So if you’re not wanting a strong Christian message, then this isn’t the book for you!
Since this one was an audiobook, I wasn’t able to get as many quotes as normal, but this one made me stop and ponder, so I captured it the best I could:
“So you don’t preach against sin?”
“In a church like this it takes more courage to preach against sin such as complaining, materialism and selfishness, all things this body is guilty of and doesn’t want to acknowledge, than it is to preach against things that are already cultural taboos such as drinking and dancing. If people don’t condemn the sins of their own heart over than the sins of the world, there will be no growth or change.”
Thank you for gifting this audiobook Jennifer Q. Hunt! All opinions are my own.

Okay, but overmuch detail
I enjoyed parts of this book. I liked the godly influence, but otherwise, it was hard keeping all the characters straight. I listened over many days when I had time and didn’t make any notes. It was boring to me but I’m sure many will like it.
