Biblical fiction is not my go-to genre – that would be suspense – but over the years through great Biblical fiction authors, I discovered a love for this genre, because it makes me consider how well known and well-loved people from the Bible might have felt and experience events we know so well.
Through
this series, maybe for the first time ever, I wondered how the Israelites’
journey in the wilderness went. Yes, we
know the complained, strayed and returned to God, but I never thought about the
life they made while journeying through the dessert.
I enjoyed
rediscovering God’s protection and provision for his people through the lives
of the characters in this series.
I loved how
the characters were not Hebrews but through a God-fearing Hebrew, found their
way to God and learning about His ways and His love.
I would
recommend this series to fans of Biblical fiction. To see more of my thoughts, please view my
individual reviews on each book through the following links:
About the author:
both ECPA and CBA bestseller lists. When she is not engulfed in the happy chaos of homeschooling two teenagers, devouring books whole, or avoiding housework, she can be found digging into the rich ancient world of the Bible to discover gems of grace that point to Jesus and weaving them into an immersive fiction experience. Although she and her husband have lived all over the country in their twenty-plus years of marriage, they currently call a little town south of Dallas, Texas their home.

This is very interesting. I've never thought about the way they lived either.
ReplyDeleteYes, definitely made me think :-)
