Revisado: 01-09-23
Wow! How true for we that love the Lord to remember! Not to consider ourselves higher and better AND to remember that God gave His son because laws never saved anyone. Praise God for His patience as the human race learns to admit our need for only Him!

I Have No Words,Only Praise!
Revisado: 03-29-22
The faith that holds this story together is ageless; and yet, new to each person who truly follows our Savior’s call. Few have the faith to risk to love beyond judgement, black & white. This story echos my life experience and speaks of peace, grace and His love through it all!
It is so easy to be distracted by laws that are black & white and the self-righteous depend upon. There is no victory or joy found in them. Though this is fiction, I testify that the message behind is 100% true. The unspeakable joy and glory seen clearly through this story, can be taken as gospel by any who try it for themselves. Walk by faith, seek to be ever closer to Him and discover the meaning of The Word!
Thank you, Francine!

In this epic Biblical narrative, ideal for fans of The Bible miniseries, a young woman taken into the prophet Isaiah's household rises to capture the heart of the future king. Isaiah adopts Ishma, giving her a new name - Zibah, delight of the Lord - thereby ensuring her royal pedigree. Ishma came to the prophet's home, devastated after watching her family destroyed and living as a captive. But as the years pass, Zibah's lively spirit wins Prince Hezekiah's favor, a boy determined to rebuild the kingdom his father has nearly destroyed.

His Light & Prophecy Shine Through This Story!
Revisado: 06-27-21
The story is incredible in its helping me to engage with God’s Word. I love that the scriptures are followed even though they are scattered through different books of the Bible. I have not understood the continuity and God’s ways in which He works until knitting His Word together in a somewhat fictional story that gives me greater understanding of His awesomeness yet His yearning for relationship with each of us in our broken state. I love the understanding that prophecy is not once and done, but many times whispers of what has been or what is to come.
Thank you for increasing my sensitivity to Our Father and His plan!

Riveting & Inspirational!!! *****
Revisado: 11-30-17
Unless we are reminded of our history, we are in danger of repeating its most horrific moments. Though WWII is remote, this is a fresh view from an honorable man of considerable character and faith who as a citizen could not escape involvement between the big players on the world stage. It reminds us that judging others actions by their apparent allegiance is less sure than considered observation. The oppressed became the oppressors once the initial oppression was released...how sad! Excellent story and performance!*****

The reader sounded like she was talking at double speed. I couldn't even understand what she was saying. I tried .75 speed. Just couldn't listen.

So Excellent, Read It Twice!
Revisado: 08-08-17
The narration is wonderful! Jonah's voice so real for a 3?year old. I loved the alternating chapters in the older women's voices and then the younger voices! This was indeed informative as well as engaging! If we are unaware of history, we might do the same mistakes again.
