About this listen
Baltimore, 1828. Spinning. Turning flax to fine linen thread for her family’s weaving business keeps Betha’s hands occupied all day, but it’s the concerns spinning in her heart that never truly rest. How can she give her nephew Henry a secure, loving home when his father remains indifferent? How can she guide the boy who calls her “Ma” to know and follow the Lord for himself? And when past secrets and future changes collide, will she lose Henry altogether?
Colm Gallagher is passionate about teaching boys using innovative educational methods. But is his kind and thorough instruction enough if he is not allowed to give his students the ultimate truth of God’s Word? Confronted by his student Henry Young and the boy’s lovely but determined aunt, Colm considers if he has allowed practical considerations to outweigh his deepest-held beliefs. Even as Betha and Colm are drawn to each other, family loyalties, financial pressures, and personal uncertainties push them further apart. Will the threads of their lives unravel or become knit together into something stronger? Weaving linen is her family’s legacy. Weaving roots of truth and grace is her calling.

Fantastic Christian Historical!
I thoroughly enjoyed this fantastic Christian historical story! The premise and depth
contained flowed with Biblical truth and encouragement. Hearing the characters ‘working out’ their salvation with Jesus throughout life’s struggles was a blessing.

Engaging, Historical Book
I loved listening to Weaving Roots. The story was realistic and I loved how the story followed characters through both hard life decisions and good times. I love reading books for fun but that also encourage my faith and challenge me. This book did that and I highly recommend.
