Deputy Jennings Meets the Amish: A Novella
About this audiobook
Deputy Tom Jennings, a patrol officer for the Cottonwood County Sheriff’s Office, is a caring cop. He doesn’t understand the Old Order Amish. After being assigned to investigate the theft of soil from a county ditch, he meets Mrs. Rebecca Borntrager Yoder. Rebecca, and Adam, her husband, help Jennings begin to learn how the Amish and the English are different, and alike.
In this novella, there are four core values that ground the story: faith, family, community, and simplicity.
