Summary

Promiseland: Callie McGregor is a young pioneer woman determined to survive the Indian massacres, prairie wildfires, droughts and blizzards of the Montana Territory and help settle the west. Her journals bring to life the men and women who endured these problems and more, transporting readers to a time long gone. A ragged old man leaves a Christmas gift Callie will never forget. A dying mother tries to drown her children rather than leave them as orphans. These stories and more leap from the pages of Callie's journals, finally teaching that it's not who wins the race that really matters, but how the race is run
Other side of Jordan: She and her family are living during some of the most turbulent times in Montana history and Callie McGregor is recording it all in her journals: cherished memories, times of testing, God's provision, a mother's tender moments. As the second book in this series opens, it seems the family's future is finally taking shape: they're experiencing the fruit of their labors on the ranch, new babies are on the way, and Callie is developing a friendship with an Indian chief. But with progress also comes obstacles. Her sister-in-law's past will return to haunt the whole family, and the time that every mother dreads is drawing near: the day of letting go. Life on the American frontier is hard, but Callie and her family are discovering anew each day that God is good
