Summary

Summary

Avid fans of Jane Austen will enjoy this enlightening look at the popular author’s personal faith and how it was expressed in her life and writing.   

Beloved author Jane Austen has amassed a loyal—and still growing—following because of the keen insights into love, romance, and relationships found in her novels. But how many listeners know that Jane was also a devoted Christian?

In this impeccably researched book, author Terry Glaspey brings Austen’s faith to light by exploring her lesser-known writings, including her published letters and prayers. He also examines the many moral values and spiritual themes woven throughout Austen’s novels. 

For devoted fans and casual listeners alike—especially those who share Austen’s love of God—The Faith of Jane Austen will deepen understanding and appreciation of her work while encouraging listeners in their own walk with the Lord.      

Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“We need more books like this to document the hidden faith behind the literary endeavors of Jane Austen. Terry Glaspey unites years of scholarship with an appealing explanation of many facets of Jane’s life and writing, including the books she read and the themes of faith she crafted. The lessons he draws from her letters and novels as to what makes good writing are a valuable primer for authors. Most important, Jane’s wit and characters sparkle brighter when you know the source of her views on life and virtue.” Joyce McPherson, author of A Quiet Faith
“Glaspey offers fascinating insights into the profound, deeply personal faith of Jane Austen and how it found its expression in her writing. You’ll want to read her novels all over again!” Christin Ditchfield, author of A Family Guide to Narnia
