In her book 'Faith in the Furnace ... and no Heat', Nola documents an epic journey, recounting what she has consistently called her 'faith and health adventure'. She dramatically weaves the saga of her life and experiences, inclusive of the divinely coordinated experiences of others. Written with passion, candour and humour, she engages her readers, taking them through a gamut of emotions. Her transparency is refreshing, as well as her satirical wit. Undoubtedly, she unstintingly promotes the importance of trusting in God, demystifying the mechanics of having a bona fide relationship with a real God, who hears and responds to human need, irrespective of race, religion, class or gender. This book is a must read. It lays bare the quintessential element of a faith that can rise about circumstances, stand firm in the furnace and not be incinerated, but instead, exonerate the character of an impartial and consistently merciful God!
