The story takes place in the middle of the World War Two period
starting in September 1943 in a place now known as "Lost Cove" just
outside of a small Tennessee town by the name of Hamilton deep
inside the Great Smokey Mountains. Margaret Fay Kidwell and Anna
Marie Carter, daughters of lumbermen living in Lost Cove had
decided to make some changes in their lives by leaving the Cove in
search of employment in Baltimore, Maryland with the Glenn L.
Martin Aircraft Company to help with the War effort. Hamilton,
Tennessee didn't have very much to offer young people as far as
employment was concerned so most of them drifted off to other
locations. Neither of these two girls wished to become housewives
raising children and to be stuck in the Cove for the rest of their
lives. Anna Marie had read an article in a newspaper she found
giving details of employment in Baltimore. She begged and pleaded
with her dearest friend Margaret Fay about leaving, telling her
since Jeb, her boyfriend and a tobacco farmer that had been drafted
into the Army and was serving overseas and her boyfriend Jim had
been killed at Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941 it was their
patriotic duty as citizens to do what they could to help with the
war effort. With very little money and a lot of nerve these two
young, inexperienced country girls from Tennessee left the Cove for
Baltimore not knowing if they would be hired to work, if they could
find a place to live or if they would even get there. With a lot of
determination, their life long friendship and lady luck riding on
their shoulders they started a new life for themselves. With the
help from newfound friends they were able to achieve what would
turn out to be a very interesting and exciting adventure.

It's not whether you have a creed or not, just which. "No creed but
Christ." This claim tries to remove the mess of doctrinal
controversy. After all, doesn't everyone know that "doctrine
divides"? But would avoiding creeds and confessions really clear
away confusion? What do you believe about Jesus? Was he really God?
The answers to these important questions make a creed, even if it's
only poorly worded or false. Creeds are unavoidable. As the
church's first "official" ecumenical creed, the Nicene Creed has
protected and shaped the life of God's people for centuries. L.
Charles Jackson's popular study walks readers through every line of
the Nicene creed, highlighting its history and contemporary
application, and revealing its grounding in Scripture. It shows us
a Nicene Creed that is pastoral, practical, and personal.
