The Anointed One

It is a story of faith, courage, and obedience. An epic tale of kingship; a journey into the heart of the Judean Mountains and across the sun-baked desert where the meek rise and the proud fall, and a stone is mightier than the sword.

"The thing I loved the most about this book was they way it incorporated scriptures from both earlier and later timeframes (even using New Testament scriptures) to show the unity and overarching principles and to deepen the story and revelation of Yahweh' s nature. The book is so well written that as the characters grow in deeper understanding of who God is and who they are in him, you grow alongside them."

"Susan Van Volkenburgh understands the world of the Old Testament; she is steeped in the geography and history of the region, as well as what archeology has recently revealed to us about Canaanite culture."
