Overview

Would you leave your loved ones to fight slavery? In 1855, pro-slavery and free-state people flock to the Kansas Territory bent on winning the slavery issue for the new state--the conflict dubbed ""Bleeding Kansas."" Nineteen-year-old Kate Collins leaves family, safety, and a suitor in Boston, convinced God has called her to fight slavery by teaching in the wild territory. Constant problems challenge her, and the schoolroom she crossed the country to lead always seems out of reach. If God truly called her to teach in Kansas, why does he keep closing every door she tries to walk through? Will Kate sacrifice love for her calling, or discover that God can redeem both?
