Welcome Home

When John Avery Whittaker returns from a lengthy stay in the Middle East, the entire town of Odyssey turns out for a joyous homecoming celebration complete with fanfare and fireworks. But for Jack, Whit's arrival means an uneasy reunion-and a tough decision about the future. Then, the phrase "Fools rush in" takes on a new significance for Eugene when he neglects to seek God's direction in his relationhip with Katrina. Meanwhile, it looks like the mission board isn't quite finished with Whit, and an offer for continued foreign ministry is on the table. Will he choose to stay on at Whit's End, or will following God's plan require another long absence for him.

REVIEW: Wow! This one is very good! Stories that will surely make you shed a tear...it's very good! "Clara" has to be one of the top stories I have ever heard, wow! This is the final set so far...but I wish the final episode was more of a final than to end it with Kid's radio. Hopefully, AIO makes new shows. I can't wait.... :) Very good and highly recommended.

If you've listen to to Adventures in Odyssey as long as I have, you'll LOVE this audio cassette. A special person (don't want to let you know who it is. It would spoil the surprise.) left Odyssey a few years ago and has FINALLY returned. Connie Kendall wanted to make this a SPECIAL day for this special person and instead of being at the airport, the ceremonies, ect. when this person arrived, she was just late for all of these things. She finnally tracked the special person down and he was asleep, do to exaustion, she was so sad, frustrated, mad, you get the point. She was cring, and she woke up the special person, she was so glad to hug the special person. If you want more information on Adventures in Odyssey, e-mail me at [email protected] Thanks!
