My Review: 
 The Mason Jar really struck a chord with me. I had just left Zambia and was in transit back to the States via London so the worlds of NGO’s and Africa were fresh on my mind. James Russell Lingerfelt has created such likable and relatable characters in The Mason Jar. Eden, Finn, and the supporting cast create a world that one can just dive into. Finn and Eden truly see the world as their mission field and don’t back down from helping people. It’s encouraging and also serves as a good reminder to not get caught up in ourselves but to find ways to impact our world.

 Lingerfelt’s writing style is eloquent and detailed as he crafts the story of Eden and Finn. Being jostled about on the tube in London I was easily transported to the beaches of California, the Tennessee countryside, and the African continent. I could hear the sweet, southern drawl of Grandpa as the letters are exchanged and feel the excitement of college and life on the horizon through the dialogue of the students. 

 The Mason Jar is a sweet story of young love learning to transcend time and circumstance. It’s a fun quick read but at the same time raises questions as to how we can serve those around us.
