When Ben and Barbara Girod married in 1973, they had no idea their
new life together would be one of shared burdens and blessings,
lovely dreams and bitter disappointments. Both products of a strict
and conservative Amish upbringing, they sought to know Jesus, and
they wanted more than the form and tradition of their Amish
upbringing. In An Amish Journey to Forgiveness, author Ben Girod
tells his remarkable and unusual story of Amish life, reflecting
his painstaking social and spiritual journey over many decades. His
responsibilities as a bishop and church leader were manifold as he
dealt with the predominant and inherent traditions of the Old Order
Amish church. A divine encounter with God brought peace and joy to
their lives, but this was soon followed by misunderstanding and
rejection by family, church members, and leaders, ultimately ending
in excommunication from their respective district. Devastated,
confused, and unable to understand why this was happening, they
turned to the Lord in search of meaning and purpose. An Amish
Journey to Forgiveness shares their story as they began to
understand that God was allowing such persecution and suffering to
draw them closer to Him. It shows how God used Girod to bring about
an awareness of the need for healing and reconciliation throughout
the body.
