About this listen

The Baxters is now an original series on Prime Video, starring Roma Downey and Ted McGinley.

A story of tenacious love and longing for a lost son, from Karen Kingsbury, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of “heart-tugging and emotional” (Romantic Times) life-changing fiction, co-authored with Gary Smalley.

A Shattered Relationship
Luke, the Baxter family’s golden boy and only son, has walked away from everything that mattered most to him: his faith, his family, and Reagan, his only love. Devastated by the events of September 11, 2001, Luke decides that life is random, faith a fraud, and God a fantasy.

A Secret
A baby is about to be born, but with Reagan a thousand miles away in New York City, Luke has no idea he’s the father. Now, though, someone in his family learns the truth. But she has a secret of her own, one that will change the Baxters’ lives forever.

A Revelation
What will it take for Luke to return to the family who loves and aches for him? And what extremes will a certain young firefighter take to help bring the Baxters together again, and in the process, find his place in the family?

This touching novel in the bestselling Christian fiction series reunites readers with the Baxter family and focuses on the only Baxter son, Luke. He is determined to leave his faith and his past behind and embrace a new, free-thinking future. But what he doesn’t realize is that his past holds a secret even he doesn’t know. When Luke finds out, his comfortable new life is turned upside-down, and he must turn back to his roots.

Captivating!

I'm always encouraged when I read stories by Karen Kingsbury. Taking the familiar story of the prodigal son from the Bible, I love how Karen Kingsbury wove that story into this book with Luke Baxter; experiencing a picture of the consequence when we walk away from God.

Wow!

Very impressive writing. Made me laugh and cry. Also, helped bring God into the light for me to somewhat understand when bad things happen. Very thankful for this series so far.

Intriguing as usual

Karen has such a way of drawing you in and leaving you grasping for more. So much more it's impossible not to keep listening or turning a page.
