The Long Road Home

Sanford and Martha Yoder had little idea what awaited them when they left their home in Virginia to move their large family to Costa Rica. They did not anticipate such primitive housing, drenching rains, or daunting mud holes. And they certainly were not expecting active volcanoes or earthquakes…To ten-year-old Pablo, it was one big adventure. Rushing rivers, picturesque lakes, secret canyons, mischievous monkeys… a whole new world was waiting to be explored. But inside, another Voice was calling. Pablo, hungry for excitement, wasn’t ready to listen. Instead, his innocent adventures took a darker turn, and his parents’ concern changed to alarm as they watched him choose his own lonely and increasingly wicked path. This story offers hope to parents with rebellious teens and draws struggling young people to true peace and rest.
