A classic of Christian fiction for a century and a half, Stepping Heavenward tells the story of a teenage girl’s lifelong effort to love and know God as she matures into womanhood, becomes a wife and mother, and experiences the tragedies and heartbreaks, the joys and triumphs, and the general vicissitudes of life; all of which she shares with readers in the form of journal entries. Originally published in installments in the Chicago Advance in 1869, this novel has been republished repeatedly over the years and become a staple of Sunday-school classes around the world, both for young adults and adults. The hardcover book from which this digital version was created was published in 1901 with eight illustrations by an unnamed artist.
“This book is a treasure of both Godly and womanly wisdom told with disarming candor and humility, yet revealing a deep heart’s desire to know God.” —Elisabeth Elliot (Christian author and speaker)
